1.6 Version CC

I have ordered a Pug 206 CC 1.6 Auto SE with 16" wheels. What else do I need to do to make my 1.6 look like the 2.0 se?

a new sports front bumper ,

BTW, maybe a new 2.0L engine as well.

No I wanted the Automatic gear box, same about the the 20.0 cause you can never have enough power.

Just a new front bumper then. Saw a 206 CC with a sliver mesh grill instead of the black, looks good.

I thought the Exhaust would come with the SE pack.

Correct me if I'm wrong but...the 2.0 SE comes with the following as standard:
- sports pack
- 16'' alloys
- automatic headlights (Nov 01 model)
- automatic wipers (Nov 01 model)
- oval exhaust
- side airbags
- a 2.0l engine

When you buy the SE you don't get the alloy wheels, the oval exhaust, the automatic headlights or the automatic wipers :sad:

the mesh grille is an option but makes a big difference to the front of the car. also consider wheel arch extensions as they also make the car look better - i think so anyway

my pics are at owner 135 if you want to take a look.

There do seem to be some 1.6's masquerading as 2.0's, the first place I look is the tailpipe - I'd definately get that swapped out or go for a Janspeed like Lyndons - looks fantastic and fits that bumper cut-out alot better.

Yep, I always look for the tell tale 2 litre SE flat tailpipe, then the 2 litre SE alloys and if I can, the white dial instruments pod just to make sure its a gen.

Hope people don't mind me asking but why spend quite a lot of money on SE accessories to make the Pug look like a 2 litre - when you can buy a 2 litre SE for a little extra cost and have that extra vavavoom under the bonnet? (insurance reasons accepted of course).

NB. It seems strange why Peugeot hadn't brought an automatic out for the 2 litre, I'm sure there would be takers.

Hmm, what I know isn't automatic gearbox a option to the 2.0 litre engine and if you compare a manual gearbox from a 1.6 litre and a 2.0 litre so isn't they same....

I can have wrong, and if I have that so correct me

cheers

I know the automatic wasn't an option for the 2 litre at first when I bought my Pug last year.

Hope thats now rectified.

2.0L not available with auto gear box

1.6L can be auto or manual.

if the 2 litre had been available with an automatic, i would have snapped it up. i'm happy with the 1.6 but am a tad resentful that

a) getting extras to spec up the 1.6 has made it more expensive than just buying the 2 litre!
b) peugeot have changed the damned spec since i bought it, anyway.

ah well. i suppose there's a cloud to every silver lining...
