Guest's review of Peugeot 206 CC 1.6

“Fun in the summer, not so good in winter”

★★★☆☆

written by on 19/08/2012

I've had my peugeot 206 cc for 3 years now. In the summer its great to have the roof down and I do love how it looks inside and out, however there are a few issues.
In the time I've had it the roof hydraulics have broken twice. Leaving me to put it up manually and having fluid leaking everywhere. Luckily the first time it was under warranty and today its just happened again, no idea how much its going to cost.
The cabin is quite noisy, especially over bumps with creaking, I suppose thats to be expected as the roof is not a solid stucture, but it can get a bit annoying.
The worst thing is when it rains. If you open the window the rain runs down the gully where the roof meets the windscreen and runs srtaight down inside the car and down the door. It can be quite a torrent. Apparently its a design fault, my mechanic told me.
And need to have the air con regassed now as doesn't seem to work but then I suppose thats par for the course too.
I also have an isse wipers. When they go 1 way they clear the screen but when they come back they leave drag marks, which can reduce visibility especially in heavy rain. Have tried new wipers and taking it to the Peugeot garage to get it sorted but they have never been able to resolve it.
Strangely I do still love it though. Its nice to drive, has power, and is comfortable(if you're in the front obviously).
