My new wicked chilli ride!

So having decided to park the evo for a tune up, and considering i commute up to 200miles a day, i had to get another car for my daily drives..

Ladies and Gents, Introducing....













The Peugeot 206RC.. 2.0Liter Vtech Technology FWD 5Sp Fully loaded 180hp NA engine.. It's a little beast and i can only compare it to the driveabililty of my previous carrera... only a bit slower!

The car is hyper fun with a very nervous engine always ready for the go..

Some Stats:

0-100 in 7.3secs
Max speed 220km/hr
17inch wheels, ZR Tyres
Recaro bucket seats
Speed assisted steering
ABS ESP 6 airbags
6CD Changer with Bose audio
Auto light sensors, auto rain sensors
Trip computer.. and many more!

Too bad u aint got this in the US guys!

Is that box of kleenex there to clean up after yourself when you get too excited about your new rig?

Sweet ride, it is a shame we do not get those here.

Does it come with an oven mitt for that shift knob?

I would imagine in the desert that thing would brand your palm pretty easily.

Thx Guys.. LOL!

Kleenex box is for the chicks sittin next to me! Comes stock w the car!
Shift Knob already burnt enough of my palm.. Got a little clothe bag to cover it up
The Cupra R (new Style) is amazing, it's gonna have 240hp but costs twice as much
Yes, the 206RC is the base of the 206WRC. It's a baby rally bread car!

Enjoy!

Those little things are quick. A very lightly modded one scared the hell out of me in my Evo once.
