Flowers blooming, the sky is clear, the sun is out, it's a beautyful day and I GOT RID OF MY CORSA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! images/smilies/biggrin.gif

No more suffering! no more pain! no more hatred! and on top of it all I bought a new car the same day!

I had my eye on this car for a while but was a bit iffy about it cause it's only the XS and not the GTI which I wanted but hell, MUCH MUCH better then my old Corsa and I LOVE IT!!! images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Oh I just noticed I forgot to mention it's a 2005 Peugeot 206 XS, 1.6L and 110HP images/smilies/biggrin.gif

That beauty is mine!!!! Happiness is flowing all through my body images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Only done 10,000 miles as well images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Only thing I'm gonna do with it for now is put 16" rims on (probably a five star), i really do think it's beautyful as it is.

Redliner · July 27th, 2007, 06:18 PM

Nice car! Enjoy! images/smilies/smile.gif

Leave it alone, your car is arguably THE best-looking hatchback of all time, and it's designed to actually look good with small rims unlike say, some Japanese cars. images/smilies/wink.gif

I'm actually amazed how those still manage to look so pretty, even though you see them around every corner.

Congrats images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Mercury Need to change your Avatar BTW.

Good choice - nice car I am rthinking of one for my Daughter in the next two years - as she'll on be 17 I will have to get the small engine but it looks so cute.

Donington · July 28th, 2007, 12:46 AM

Nice, I'm not sure how much more reliable it will be than the Corsa, but it's a fine looking and driving motor. I wouldn't have bothered with getting a GTi, the 206 GTi was weak compared to the 205 version. It doesn't have much over the XS. Still, a fine little motor. Don't put big wheels on it, they don't look good.

jayhawk · July 28th, 2007, 12:49 AM

Peugeot does know how to make a good looking hatchback.

Noice! I've always had a soft spot for Pugs and the 206 is a fine looking little thing. Chicks dig 'em - Cute with angggry eyes! images/smilies/biggrin.gif

A friend of mine owns a 205 GTI and it's shown me that there really is a knack to owning a French car. They can be a bit fragile and they can break easily and leak various precious fluids but they have real soul and character. You have to roll with the punches and really feel the highs and lows. It's not like owning a Vauxhall...

nice car, even better picture.

What camera / cellphone did you use to take this pic?

Mercury · July 28th, 2007, 04:27 PM

First off thanks for all the congrats images/smilies/smile.gif

I always had a soft spot for the 206 and now that I own one I'm really excited so therefore the shouting and excitement.

Well I agree with you it's one of the best looking hatchs but I've seen more then enough to know the alloys really do add, and going 16" is only going to the GTi's size, not anything so big that it looks ridiculous...

I had a 205 as well, it was a 1.4 and it was my first car so naturally I love it, still miss it etc etc. And since the 206 was out there I wanted one but never had the chance...3 years in the army and then another 2 abroad gave me no chance, then I come home and my dad gives me a Corsa for fuck's sake... Now it's all better though.

I wasn't even sure and when I took a look at it I saw something quite cool on Imageshack, it actually says which camera took the pictures and it's right.... It was a Canon S3 and if you look at the bottum left of the page the pic is on it tells you that. Original is like 2200x1600 or something though, I shrinked it too 800x600 for imageshack.

Because in the excitement of getting a new car (a nice one, too images/smilies/smile.gif

) you didn't change in your profile what car you drive. It still says you have your Corsa.
