I found the 206 gti to be a dissapointment when i drove one, thought it'd feel a lot quicker

Its very disceptive (IMO) floor it from about 4k in 5th rpm and the speedo flys round!

Ive just done the same swap, my VTS was nippier deffo, the 206 just seems to sedate to be a GTi, no sense of speed and doesnt handle as good, just my opinion, nice car but prefered my VTS by a mile, would still have it if it wasnt a nightmare with reliability. on the plus side the 206 interior is much nicer, the pedal thing is true also
