| 206 remains popular, new and used, but it could offer more in terms of comfort and ease of use. A sturdy body makes 206 quite heavy, so the less powerful engines can struggle at higher speeds. The 1.1i and 1.9D are underpowered; the popular 1.4i and 1.4 HDi offer plenty of pull and brisker acceleration. There are also sportier 1.6i and 2.0i petrol choices, plus a punchy and frugal 90 bhp 2.0 HDi unit. Handling is confident and agile, and the ride gets smoother the faster you go. But there's too much road noise and noticeable engine noise in the middle to upper rev ranges. The hatchback cabin feels a bit plasticky. It's spacious up front (though you may find the driving position uncomfortable) and adequately roomy behind. The Coupe Convertible has limited room in the back. Long service intervals and good fuel economy help to keep running costs low. |
