Peugeot 206 1.4 Look 3d (AC) (2003/53) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
2 years free insurance a bargain.
Costs
Too early to say yet, but 20k-mile servicing is good. Bit pricey to buy without free insurance though.
-
On the road
Driving
Sloppy gearbox, TERRIBLE driving position and ridiculously positoned steering wheel.
Performance
Mediocre performance. Need 1.6 as a minimum.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Needed new ECU within 1st 6 weeks of ownership - since then has been ok... touch wood.
Image
Looks a bit dated and a bit common now - bit of a girly car.
Comfort
Seats are poor - unsupportive and lacking in adjustment. A/C is good in summer though.

Security and Service
Security
Standard immobiliser is ok, but alarm would be useful addition.
Service
Dealer has been excellent - courtesy car available while mine was being repaired. Very professional, good service.
