#1: Mod or not? Author: RedHDI, Location: Northern IrelandPosted: Fri Mar 08, 2013 11:47 am ---- My 206 has 180k miles on the clocks but running smooth. What i want to know is would it be worth my time to do a few mods e.g; Lowering, Rims, gti kit etc. If the engine blows im thinking about either doing a turbo gti conversion and making it a proper sleeper considering its a 5 door and would be so unexpected or the other route is to put in a 1.6 hdi engine and map it with a front mount. Whats peoples opinions on this?

I was thinking for the time being i could lower it around 70mil all round with 205 speedlines or some deep dish superlites
