Curious to see what everyone here drives, if at all Very Happy

I've got a Peugeot 206 1.4 8v for 20 months now, never thought I'd buy a Peugeot and actually love it Laughing
Bloody amazing handling, only downside with my engine is that it lacks a bit of power (75 bhp). Might be able to get my hands on a 206 RC though, that should fix that problem Twisted Evil

Need to replace the exhaust though, and the rims aren't at their best either. Previous owner put some shoddy ass exhaust underneath it. Never noticed it until a few weeks ago when its retainer let go Neutral

In three versions: 16 liters capacity, 32 liters and 64. Laughing But if you grab the wheel in wrong way, you lose control over your iCar.

Laughing Plus don't forget that the iCar won't support multitasking, so do not try to steer and contemporaneously decelerate/accelerate!

Currently I have a V6 2006 Accord (sedan).

 Spoiler:
 

(the wheels are different tho, couldn't find pics, + mine has a sunroof and front xenon 3000k fog lights)

I had a 1.6 16v Peugeot 206 a few years ago and I loved it too, but I can't say the handling was great... Sure it was ok, but if you push it too hard the back end goes out like crazy, without warnings (had a few incidents where I got lucky...).

(I think this one is the driver's fault, but just to illustrate...)

Blades are so much better, been using them for a while now too.

agreed , they don't screech on dry areas and generally more silent

That video is indeed a driver fuck up. Comes in way too fast, and then panics. With my weaker 1.4 8v oversteer is actually quite hard to get, requires some effort to get the rear end to break out

It definitely handles better than a Corsa or Clio for example, both in the same price range. I've actually driven the RC I have my eyes on (mate of my brother's, he's looking to import a Vauxhall Monaro VXR), and that showed me how the 206 was able to win the WRC not once, but twice. The difference with better shocks and suspension is immense, not to mention the increased power that beast has Smile


Neither picture of my 206 is recent btw, got blades on it as well
