    206 gti

    I bought my first 206 sept 09 after selling my gt due to my wife being pregnant, the car was cheap and ok at the time.
    It's been trouble free so far (fingers crossed).


    The bay was looking a mess so I sprayed the engine cover and tb bit.


    Then I noticed the shitty sound deadening sagging on the fresh paint, so ripped the bugger off.
    I then painted the engine cover again.


    Then my rear axle gave up the ghost.
    So I replaced it with a 180 axle and lowered in 30mm at the same time.


    I then got hold of some black lexarse lights.
    They looked "ok" for a day or two?!?
    So I sprayed them black.

    For some reason it had a non gti rear bumper, so I've swapped that too.
    I also got hold of a ph2 boot strip and ph2 washers.
    The front was then lowered 30mm on eibach coilovers.
    I've sprayed the front badge
    Removed rear badges
    And I've also sprayed the bumper strips ford panther black, along with the mirror caps and door mouldings.

    Then I replaced the drivers door and wing due to dents.
    I then got some ph2 lights

    Exhaust had dropped so that was welded back up.

    Then today I had the opportunity to swap my crystals and ph2 lights for chrome angels and black led rears.

    I also fitten some 206info stickers in the front and rear screens.

    And that's about it for now (that I can remember)
    I took this pic after swapping the light with another 206info member.


    (mines the front one)


    I'd also like to add I'm not a fan of frence cars and have no plans on keeping it long.

    Cheers.

    The 180/RC have all been tuned down to about 160.
    I had on for about a week, but sold it for a tidy profit!

    The g/f's runaround gti 180 made a solid 174bhp on the rollers so although not 180 - not bad. Great for a back road hack that doesn't cost the earth to run/insure and is pretty reliable compared to her GTV6!

    In Holland all Rc's are around the 177bhp. We have test which can confirm that from a respected remap company. After remap the come around 190bhp
