Ive wanted a 206 for ages, and I think this summer is gonna be the time I eventually get one!!
Gonna go for a black 1.4 sport i think?! and make it look the same as the 206 GTi 180, but as I cant afford the insurance on the 180 (wont even quote me) il have to go for the look-a-like!!
Gonna get the 180 interior:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4632649633&indexURL=2#ebayphotohosting
The exterior on the sport is pretty much the same, and im gonna go for the sp pack, with twin headlights!! will look similar to these, same wheels, grilles, lights, etc!! (without the lexarse lights):

My mate bought a brand new 206 1.4 Sport after he wrote off his 1.4 16v Corsa.
I drove it home for him one night after he had had too much to drink and its too small an engine for the size of car. Had no go about it at all... get a 1.6 16v at the least. They feel really flimsy aswell

If the 1.4 sport is an 8 valve, they are painfully slow, interior is shoddy, theres something above the brake pedal that catches your foot as you move it over to brake (quite dangerous) all in all i think they are pants.

this is true , drive them all day long at work an each point he mentions is pretty true , however if you do get one like you say wait until summer when the 207 is out , should drop in price .

Bloke round the corner has a 206 GT... looks nice, big arches+bumpers, looks much better than GTI/180 but they are all shite IMO... birds family have them and they creak and smell and drive pants!

Step sister has a 1.4 one. barely pulled away from my 1.0 corsa
Then again, took her 30 seconds to change gear 
Noisy, floppy and girly.
