 Tom H's recommendation | |
A good selling supermini which has kept drivers happy for many years.
A little dated by current standards.
The Peugeot 206 may be showing its age, but it is still a force to be reckoned with. Few rival models sell as strongly to Britain's private buyers, and during 2002 a whopping 82,667 examples found a home in Britain. But despite the success, Peugeot is still investing huge energy into the future of its supermini. In the sixth year of production, the Peugeot 206 1.4 Quiksilver was launched, costing £11,020. Although shaded by the price and performance of Citroen's C2 VTR at £10,995, the 206 remained one of the biggest cars in its class. The engine is far from powerful - 0-60mph takes 10.9 seconds - but the model still has a couple of surprises for owners and enthusiasts alike. Firstly, the short gear ratios make the most of the engine's 90bhp. And secondly, this was the last Peugeot with the trailing-arm rear suspension that made the Peugeot 106 and Peugeot 205 such fun. It still shows more recent models a thing or two in terms of road manners - no wonder it sells so well.
