I had one for a year.
Cheap and cheerful.
are we talking about the 180 or just the gti which isnt realy a gti at all?
Get a 106gti bags more fun!
106 gti ftw.
My mate had a red cammed one, with a straight through pipe and cherry bomb. **** me was it loud and fast!!!
nice enough car, chassis cant keep up with the engine though, torque steer etc, my wife loves them so that should tell you something (she drives a transit van!)
My other half has a GTI 180 and it is a lot of fun in the twisties. Good compromise on fuel economy too it doesn't use much more than my GT.
If you are someone who doesn't understand a strong chassis and are power mad then you won't get this car.....but it is a nicely balanced little package. One of the best I have driven on a B-road blast in the hatchback sector. (I can't speak for any other 206 though)
They are also very reliable. I speak from what we know but apart from consumables and the tax/mot it hasn't needed a penny spent on it in 45,000 miles - seriously impressed.
She had a white 205 diesel as her first car and we did 50,000 miles in a year and it didn't miss a beat apart from needing a couple of sets of boots.
I'm not a fanboy and it's not the kind of car I would own - but am being honest about it....I was semi hoping it would be crap but it has surprised me.
