power steering

I drove my sisters standard 206 last night and couldn't believe how loose the steering is. After comparing the two cars my cc's steering is quite heavy. When i turn tight corners it actually gives me a bit of a workout... is this normal for other peeps here?

Thanks.

I would say yes, from my experience.

Just had a normal 206 courtesy car for over a week - and the car and the steering was alot lighter.

If tyre pressures are down, that too will make the steering heavy.

Wheel sizes also make a difference. My car has 17inch wheels therefore the steering is heavier but when I revert to my 15inch wheels the steering is lighter. Maybe the 206 has 13inch or 14inch wheels therefore the steering feels lighter to the 206cc 15inch wheels.

I agree with Ali. I too had a 206 courtesy car and it was really light and I wondered if there was something wrong with my car, but clearly not. The steering might have been light, but I felt like I was driving a tin can! Give me the CC any day!
