Peugeot 206 1.9 D LX 5d (AC) (2001/Y) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Seems to be holding its price pretty well.
Costs
Downside is being 1.9 Diesel it is very heavy on the front and eats tyres for breakfast. New front pair required every 15k miles!
-
On the road
Driving
Very good position. Only let down by slightly awkward pedal positioning, but height adjustment is a real bonus.
Performance
Around 50mpg. More if you don't use air con but you need air con for comfort.
-
Living with it
Reliability
No problems.
Image
Still looks great, but mine is evergreen in colour (diesel swayed my selection not colour) but there are better colours around.
Comfort
Very comfortable. A tad tight in the back on legroom.
-
Security and Service
Security
Only comes with immobiliser.
Service
Goes in every 5k for a service, but you only pay every 10k and the price isn't too bad. Dealer is helpful and friendly (Old's of Yeovil) but the premises are really dowdy and need a major revamp.
