Yeah that mk 3 was a blast had a strong 16v with new injectors and a cold feed induction kit sounded great all the way to the petrol station

To be honest the 206 180 was one of the worst cars ive owned , back box dropped off the day i got it, 2 clutch/ fly wheel replacements. had all 6 courtesy cars from the dealer . it wasnt that fast and ate the juice. it didnt last long :signLOL:
