Yeah but i think they brought it back cos it was sold as a wheelborrow, but the new owner brought it back when the funny side bar fell off and wouldn't go back on

Erm before you get one I would check to see if the Honda dealers will work on it,parts supply and warranty. I know that when i worked for Honda they were not going to touch these and were not going to import them as Uk cars at all. May be worth a call.

Nice car.

Still FWD though

Prefer an S2000 myself, coz it's driven from the correct end

Still lusting after an NSX...

Totally agree about the cheap plastics,the most appealing thing about the 206cc is the roof the good looks and the performance = 2.0se only (1.6 being underpowered) after 3 months of initialy enjoying the car, i could never get used to that sloppy gearbox. Anyway 1 x agean 2.0se now gone -part exchange got 12500. As of Saturday now driving a mini cooper s its like going from cardboard box to a mansion build quality,dealer/customer care performance. I know you all love ur 206cc's and i understand why, i just cant put up with all thoughs imperfections that pug still havent iorned out after 2 years - why update the model when the cars still have leaky roofs , crap gearboxes although i know a lucky few have had no probs at all. Thought it was supposed to be the other way around a few crap ones but mostly good ones. I know there were one or two initial probs with the mini but bmw/mini were quick to sort that. The mini has better residuals is cheaper to buy iin the first place and as an alrounder slaughters the pug even if they are differnt cars.

and how do you take the mini's roof off? with a f***ing can opener I suppose. NO COMPETITION! The new mini aint a real mini anyway, its too big.

Who wants a british leyland car anyway

206CC RULES OK!

Wouldn't want to Crash in a Citroen Pluriel. It would fall to pieces just like a lego train when you turn the speed regulator up too high on a bend.

They've sold one!!!???!!!

I saw one parked in the street the other day so it would appear they have sold at least one

Mind you, they could have strategically parked it there to give that impression!

Did anyone see them test driving it on Top Gear?! Pure comedy genius!

Yeah top gear was great, where they had to drive round with the side supports on their lap and when the touched the boot and it fell apart

The tiny hard top convertible the Jeremy Clarkson could fit in as also great

He would have got his head caught though had he tried to close the roof

Can I join Vanda's fan club she rules!

Mini's are all show and made for the fashion society. I love racing mini's they're easy fodder.

Nice to see the cc is no longer an "IT" car though.

Erm why not get a Pluriel. I think they are great. But personaly I would only swap my CC for a suki. :yes:
