Good Points
The looks, the feeling the car gives you when you pull away from less powered small hatches and the sporty seats. The sound system in mine is standard and it is of good quality. The sporty handling. The cheapness of the insurance and tax. The fuel economy if driven sensibly.

Bad Points
I did stuggle to find my ideal driving position in it and to be honest its still not perfect. I find my legs are at the right distance from the peddles but I'm stretching with my arms alittle to reach the steering wheel. My arms are not short either!! lol. Sporty suspension can get abit annoying on long journeys if not on motorway, on the motorway it is smooth.

General Comments
I have recently bought my Peugeot 206 1.6 16v xsi 2001 in black. I fell in love with it straight away which I think the dealer spotted unfortunately. I won't go into the price but I think I would struggle to get another motor with this spec and performance for much less within this age of car. So it is great value for money I think. If you keep your foot down passed 3500revs its sounds really sporty and will put a smile on your face. However if you drive it gently you will be supprised how economical it is. I think you could get close to 400 miles to a tank. In conclusion, a good looking little hatch which will supprise you on performance and is also quite cheap to run.
