I ve done a few track days in the 6 now and the old man is starting to get jealous as he used to have a kit car that he did track days in but he sold it a few years back and now is bored and wants a toy so he suggested that he stumps up the money on a bujet minde and I build it and maintain it so being a Peugeot man got on e bay and came up with a 206 gti not the fastest car peugeot made but value for money couldn't go wrong so this is it 350 quids worth of 206 gti with just over 100 000 on the clock no tax no mot but it started and drove will post more picks soon with progress

Why Peugeot ever gave that model a GTi badge I will never know.

Still, it's a cheap car and with the right bits will make for a decent car I'm sure.

    its not that bad, 138 bhp and 1100kg, not really that much slower than a full fat 1200kg+ 167bhp gti6.

    cant wait to see nick charles's sb powered satchell chassis'd combe race car....

    I've found them to realistically be only a bit slower than a 180. Not a bad car by any means. Dash sucks though in my opinion.

    Sorry ricky my grammer always sucked, the first thing I will do is strip it out and put it on a diet to compensate for the not so wonderful power, and the interior is rank they must of smoked 100 fags a day and not used the ash tray. 206's were never peugeot greatest car in my opinion but price was right.

    got some done to the 206 at weekend, got all the interior out the car, removed the front bumper ready to fit the oil cooler, and picked up some integra type r recaro's for £40 quid for the pair bargain. Here are some pictures of the progress.

    got some more done to the car today removed the air conditioning, all the pipes and rad luckily on a 206 gti when removing the a/c pump you can just put a shorter belt on so was nice and easy. Then managed to get the seats fitted so was a productive weekend.
