Re: My little Arosa and Peugeot 206 SW GTi

What do those Fords have to do with my Peugeot? ;)

It's quick (0t100km/h or 62mph in 8,7sec with lots of wheelspin) but it ain't a racer. My 106 GTi was much faster.

Re: My little Arosa and Peugeot 206 SW GTi

Nothing really :) We don't get the Peugeots here, so I do not know much about them. It seems like it would compete with a Fiesta hatch here? The Fiesta is fairly critically acclaimed here, and seems to have about the same fanbase as yours, it would be interesting to see a comparison between the successful cars in their respective markets.

Edit: not claimed, acclaimed.

Yep, you can buy a Fiesta ST here.

But then you have to compare it to the 3drs 206 GTi, not the station. (SW is heavier / slower)

it's in Dutch but well, better then nothing :mrgreen:

Got rid of the crappy Peugeot (€1500,- of repairs in 8months :? )

Bought a 2005 Ford Focus C-Max 1.8-16v with 119.000km on it.

C-Max will be gone tomorrow. I've bought a 2012 Ford Focus 1.6 Ecoboost with 18" rims :mrgreen:

Re: 2012 Ford Focus 1.6 Ecoboost

My family had a 2000 ford focus and it was great until the brakes failed at a unexpected red light. It was something to do with a pipe I think. We sold the car to a person who was a ford mechanic or something. We now have a Hyundai Accent but we know the focus is a good car! :D You made a good choice! :)
