Peugeot 206 ?

[Tommon]

Im old enough to drive in November and as my friend is off to uni in october , he's looking to sell his car.

Its a Peugeot 206 Look , 51 Plate with 67K on the clock.

He wants £700 for it as that's what he bought it for a year ago.

Is this a good deal or should i steer well clear ?

Cheers , Tom.

If it was me id stear clear, iv seen lower mileage ones fall to bits, Peugeot's just arent what they used to be.

apart from a vauxhall corsa , this is the only reasonably cheap car to insure :/

You pays your money you take your chance, so they say, but youve got to start somewhere!

£1000 more to insure :/

Christ on second thoughts take the 206, its unlikely to cost a grand a year in repair bills.

£1.7 - £2K for corsa

I used to hire a lot of Peugeots and found the pedals in the 206 too close together. I had a lot of trouble using the clutch whilst braking at the same time, I've only got size 8 feet as well. I always went for the 307s at the time, lots of foot room on the pedals there. I'd get a test drive before you decide.
