Thought i would get set up on here as i have never had a peugeot before let along a convertible!

This will be my second car (im only 20 lol) i have chopped in my 1.3ltr Ford Ka (bit of a difference:P)

Just really wanted an overall opinion of the car from anyone!

Welcome to the forum.
Hope that your 2.0 206cc turns out to be a good one.
We have a 1.6.

Hi there!

I switched to a 206CC (mine's also a 1.6) after a Ford Ka
and found it surprisingly easy - I love the comfort, driving
position and roadholding. With the low profile tyres you will
notice a bit of a difference from the Ka, but it's just as easy
to manoeuvre and park. No regrets yet about my change though I
would recommend a windstop and a space saver spare wheel if you
don't get them with your car!

Enjoy the freedom of open-air motoring in 2008!

Hi. Big difference in engine size there, although the KA is pretty nippy for what it is and good fun too!

I went from a KA to a CC to and found the big difference was the brakes, far superior on the CC... although I now have a gti 180 and the brakes on that are far superior to the CC :lol:

Nothing beats a convertible no matter what it is. I'd get one tomorrow if I didn't need the four seats.

thanks for all your comments guys! I appreciate it rang the garage today to see if i could pick it up tomorrow...up was up at the garage having its mot so fingers crossed!

Everyone at work is so jealous haha i love it!...is that wrong of me:)

after test driving it i found the breaks were better and after my ford ka i didnt have to start slowing down two miles before i needed to!!

Hi.
We bought our Peugeot 207 from here http://www.cbg.ie/NewCars/Peugeot/207.aspx, and we love it. They didn't have Peugeot 206, so we decided on the 207. We wanted a extra safe car, because we're riding with our little daughter, and Peugeot surely meet this expectations. So congratulations, you've got a great car!
