Peugeot 106 GTi - daily driver?

[tomcrowther]

expect me wanting help with it the day I get one then are there any french/pug cars/ 106 clubs or something similar locally then?

[Krikkit]

Not that I've found, I tend to hang around with the NW members of the Rallye Register, but they're all Manchester-area so it's a bit of a trek!

[tomcrowther]

Manchester isn't too bad, spend a lot of time driving to sport city and the Trafford centre with work, so I can manage that to meet up with like minded people just not in my current car...

[billy939]

This is making me want another one now! Anybody know of this car still knocking about in the wales area?



No....ahh well i'll just add to the 106 gti love session :P








Miss that car a lot

Cherry red! Less common than diablo and look better in the sunlight
If you can try and find a sundance yellow or moonstone blue, both great colours

[tomcrowther]

not a fan of the yellow, blue however is verry tempting...

[Krikkit]

Imo Cherry Red or Sundance Yellow is the best. My fave colour on the 106 is Indigo Blue, but it only works on Rallyes!

[Holywow]

Any colour is good.

I prefer the early cloth seats, the later leather sided ones weren't quite as comfy for me.

Cobalt blue!

[tomcrowther]

can anyone report on the sound system (if you can call it that) quality from the original speakers?

[Krikkit]

Acceptable, given what the NVH is like in there already.

[tomcrowther]

nvh?

[Krikkit]

Noise, vibration and harshness. i.e. It's a small, old, French hatch with not much soundproofing.

Agreed, it's not actually that bad for such small speakers.

[tomcrowther]

if worst comes to worst, I can always stick something a bit better behind the original covers so it doesn't look like a halfords edition 106

Our family 306 was that colour IIRC Fond memories.
