If you're going for a regular 106 get a 1.9d. Those engines literally last forever.

I got the 1.4 petrol.
I absolutely hate it, its the definition of shitbox though. You can beat it to death.
Its super brutal at highway speeds, whole car rattles like a fuck and sounds like its about to explode.
Also problematic to accelerate in highway, other cars will smash into you if youre not ready to merge in at appropriate speed.
Shit at turning.
Shitload of things are broken, plastic doesnt hold well.
Probably more related to my own 106, consumes more fuel than I'd expect for this shit performance.

I also absolutely hate the rear of this car. The older 306 tail lights would make the car look much better.
My peugeot also has probably one of the worst colors I've ever seen. Its super cringe to drive in.

My mom used to have a petrol and loved it, never had an issue
I Don't own one, bit i'd love me a 1.3 rallye

>tfw saw a 205 a few weeks ago

That thing was pretty snappy in the corners

>Shit at turning
It's broken. Corners are the only thing the 106 does well.

No. It just feels great and i agree with that. Its super light so you feel like youre driving in a go kart, pushing you to the side. Its fun.
However, this is not about feels but about actual turning. And thats simply shit. Even a modern 3 ton shitbox will turn better.

Tires?

They're probably not that rare in Portugal, since most cars there are diesel.

But why would you want a diesel 106?
They're much better with nippy petrol engines

Frenchfag here
Good god our edm nowadays is awful but we had some good cars back then.
106/Saxo VTS, Super 5
mfw now we only 1.5dci

The 1.5 dci actually feels pretty quick compared to older diesels. But torque is non existent.

kek, I meant 1.5d.

Nah, he's right. It's kinda impossible to find if it doesn't exist, I guess.

Really? I've actually seen some for sale before. Maybe they were conversions.

I've owned a 306 and a 206 both with the 1.9 Diesel.
It seemed like it was too heavy even for those cars. I can't imagine how terrible it would be on a 106.

Yes, they were swaps.

>It seemed like it was too heavy even for those cars. I can't imagine how terrible it would be on a 106.
Yeah, they are. They're also gutless as you would know.
But they're quite old and proven, and being N/A and having mechanical injectors they would last forever.

>Saxo
I just remembered when I was a lot younger we had Citroen Saxo as rental in Greece, still get goosebumps thinking how shitty that car was.

The 1.1 petrol is actually slower than the 1.5 diesel

Mate of mine had a 106 GTi, the thing was a fucking riot. Too bad he had to scrap it.

Utter shitboxes.

Unless you can find a Rallye.

are we related? we had one too

why did French cars get so.. bland?
