Hi guys, been trailing round the car sales and dealers today and im quite interested in the 206 GTI's from about 2001/2002. Anyone had any dealings with these cars on what to look out for? Mainly Electircal im guessing?

Many thanks guys and gals

I bought a brand new 206 gti in 2003. And to be honest it was the worst car i have ever owned.

It was constantly in the garage (1-2 times a month). I owned the car for 13 months & in that time it had the cat changed 3 times. So many recalls i lost count and twice completly lost power (no lights, engine died, no electrics). Then when it went back to the garage they would tell me there was nothing wrong as there was no histoy of any faults on the ecu.

Have met people who have owned these cars & they had very similar problems.
