Peugeot 206 reviews

Cheap to maintain, reliable (never let me down), and looks very good. There are some weak points like the rear beam axel, and the steering column switch. The 1.6cc engine is very reliable if you change the oil at every 10 thousend kilometers.

The car is from 2004 but I have bought it 3 years ago. After I bought it I changed the oil filters, brake pads and brake discs just to make sure. The car now has 243.220 km, the only things that didn't need to be changed regulary in any cars is some hose from front wheels because front wheels where warming up quite a lot on long journeys (it costed arround 30€) and an resistor from AC it was because it didn't get cold enough in the car on the summer (it costed arround 45€). This was all that I changed on it since I got it verry good car for it's age and considering that I live into a country with not so great roads It's sturdy enough. About the running cost it's almost like it's running on air. I only fill up when the light comes on because I forget about it. The space with 4 people it's confortable enough fot it's price. Only the boot space it could be a bit bigger but that's it. About the performances I don't have trouble overtaking Golfs ;). And that's it I love this little car.

I have brought this car second hand and it had almost a ten year gap in servicing. But for 350 quid I took a chance. I had to give it a few tweaks to make it roadworthy, but I had no real problems with it, minor problems with the electrics, battery died, changed the head gasket, brake cylinder and brake pads, but apart from that it works just fine considering I had it for over a years and drive 120 miles a week commuting. I truly believe with persistence, this car cab last for life

Downsized to this car a few years ago. I do less mileage now so don't need a diesel but still find it economical to run. My only criticism is it is not as comfortable as my previous , larger car but that is not a problem as my journeys are shorter

We've had our 206 13yrs and have been really happy,serviced every year never let us down if on short journeys or very long trips.

A good reliable car for its size easy to handle after used to bigger cars mainly petrol

I would strongly recommend buying this type of car, due to it's low running costs and reliability. It warms up quickly in cold weather and is big enough for the needs of a 2nd car. I will definitely buy again when the time comes.

I have had this car for 9 years, lovely car but not big enough that we have a family, also my partner is disabled and helping with getting our baby in and out of the car especially with the amount of stuff babies come with! Only had a few troubles with the computer system in this car Nothing else top car nice to drive!

The cars a really good and reliable small car, lots of room for its size, a pleasure to drive. Two complaints it took a bit getting used to the pedals being close together and its a bit greedy on fuel.

Reliable cheap 2nd hand car only problem is brake and accelerator pedal too close together

I have had the car for less than 12 months, so far it has been all that I require. Other recently owned cars have not been so satisfactory.

Our 206 is a 1.6 petrol, 5 door hatch, bought new (with free air-con). 65,000 miles later it has never had a major problem - touch wood. Mostly local driving, occasional 200 mile return run, and one faultless 3000 mile trip. Bodywork as new. Front seats go back a good way. so great for 2 people, but will take 4 readily. Delighted with this car. Does everything we want it to do. So, as we have kept it well serviced (e.g. a cam belt change is scheduled) and hope to get another 5 years similar from it and feel no need to get a replacement. Thank you Peugeot.

Loving the looks, especially with the apple green I chose and the spec in the interior feels classy with its leather seats and steering wheel. The console and dash feel a little more robust and look more expensive than the run of the mill. The rear seats are a complete waste of time and the limited space in the rear could have been used for something more useful imho. The roof works well and looks good down but makes the boot space tiny but those buying this, like me, are not looking for luggage space and child seats but a compact car with a bit of sexiness and this has that. The gearbox feels 'roomy' but as this car is 13 years old I can forgive that but bodywork held up remarkably well as did the interior and everything works! My only issue is with the engine management system which keeps giving a Anti-Corrosion error, which is giving my garage hives!

Just what I wanted, Cheap to run. Comfortable quite nippy. The only down is mirrors on doors very small & and magnify so when reversing you think you are close to something but your not

I am happy with my car as it suits my needs. It is pratical and economical

I really don't like this car, but had no choice as I needed a car that was cheap to fix and fairly cheap to run and tax. There is not enough leg room in the back, the demisters are rubbish and take for never to clare the windows, and its not a very comfortable ride. But one good thing its a cheap little bus to get repaired.

nice small car that gives flexibility. plenty of space inside when back seats are folded down .economical to run.

I am quite happy with my little car & find it much easier to park than my previous larger car, though the suspension is not as good. However it copes with motorways & journeys of up to 150 miles very well. I have no complaints.

This is a very practical car. It is nippy enough and handles well enough to make it good and fun to drive on any road. I can take huge loads, but is still easy to park. It delivers 55+mpg across urban and motorway usage. Running costs in terms of servicing and repairs so far very reasonable. I test drove the 207 but found it to be less nimble and less practical (not enough cubby-holes, less pleasant place to be). I'd give it 4 *s across the board.

I bought this car second hand over 8 years ago. The body work and interior are still in fantastic condition. It has never had any major problems at MOT or services. Solid yet simple car.
