I was lucky, I had the choice of Blue or Green, depending one who was first out in the morning

Now I have the choice of errr a Blue puma or a blue puma (again) or a green fiesta. Lifes hard

There is no contest...... firstly why it isn't:

Black: impossible to keep clean for longer than 2 hours
Silver: to bland and boring...Mercs are silver, Astra's are silver not cc's
Moonstone: washed out
Red: Great color if your female as it matches the shoes
Green: Imagine throwing up
Firedance: See comments for Red

So the winner is:
Agean Blue - Looks sporty and fun to drive. Vibrant and relatively easy to keep clean....It's also Peugeot's "traditional" colour

Man have I just made a heap of enemies!!!!!!!!

Not me mate, got Aegean Blue as well! It looks shinier than the other colours as it's pearlescent. I did consider black with black/red leather, but I'm lazy when it comes to cleaning!

I got to agree though, silver is a bit common these days. Moonstone is good but I think on smaller cars like the 106 (my 106 was moonstone and looked great). Green does stand out though and makes you turn and look at it! Red's good, but I think the CC red is a bit too "flat" - difficult to describe really, but it just doesn't stand out as much as it could. Firedance is good though, my sis has one and it looks great.

nope firedance is baked bean colour like the forum

My first 206 was nearly firedance, but i wasnt sure if i liked the colour for what it was, or if it was because it would have been the only way to get an xsi with free insurance at the time. Didnt get it in the end after my mate said aboput the similarity between firedance 206's and baked beans!

And moonstone is clearly the best colour - silver was, until every single person buying a 206 hatchback, vauxhall astra or VW Golf in the last 4 years decided they liked it too! (including me with my 206 hatch!) Moonstone gives a similar look, but slightly different, is seen a little less often
