Hi
Total noob question but I remember all us years ago talking about the diesel 206 models.
Which one is the "ideal" one to get again? (I.E. having better engine/less issues).
Was it the 1.6 HDi? Vaguely rings a bell but cant remember!

The 1.6 would be the one to avoid. Turbo fails, DMF, Anti-pollution faults.
the 2.0 is the bullet proof diesel engine

1.6 Hdi I prefer but you have to make sure they are serviced correctly otherwise you can have big issues!
By quicker and more economical engine than the 2.0's
