Dont get one. A girl, friend of mine had one. Endless amounts of problems. Was constantly back at peugeot and it still fucked up. She regrets it terribly ever getting one.

Agreed, my mate has one and its always having problems, just spent £1400 on it, fixing fuel injectors and other engine problems.
And this is a person who drives like a old lady, always on the speed limit. Also i dont know why he even has one.

I've said many of times i've not had any issues really with my pug. However, modern cars are fairly reliable.
Heard lots of bad stories regarding the 206cc which would stear me away. However, i heard nothing but bad stories about the Corsa C and had no issues with mine really.
I personally think, unless you have loads of spare time on your hands or don't drive very far then pick up low mileage decent vehicles and drive them.
If you ma wants a 206cc, i'd get one from a main dealer. You won't pay much more and it will come with 12 months waranty.

Get a Tigra. Crap ride with the roof up, but handles OK with the lid down.

Mum had one for 2 years, never had any problems with it whatsoever, 1.6 diesel was quite fun actually.

well we saw the car and she like it and it all checked out ok so she bought it. I told her the points all mentiomed above.
As for the tigra, that was my suggestion but, she didnt like em. Said there was poor visibility and it felt cramped with the bulk head behind the seats.

roof rattling,
water leaks,
major scuttle shake,
front drop links wearing quick,
wishbone bushed deteriorate at low miles,
if its a 2.0 petrol the cat is on the centre section and the exhaust cost about a grand!
roofs tend to always fuk up, stay open normally when it rains,
cant fit even a small kid in the back,
and then theres the peugeot build quality... lol
oh yeh most of all i hate... NO SPARE TYRE!! get some stupid spray stuff for punctures, but what happens if you get a slash in the tyre on a motorway, no spare wheel.
you can get the model with jbl sounds system, is ok and has two subs in the boot
