I went to dealer 2 days ago and he showed me this suspension kit by peugeot sport for 206-206cc...
Has anyone here installed any or heared anything about them? :?: Comments or ideas much appreciated...
The cost with the setup is about 1100€ and the lowering will be 35mm...
:rolleyes:
Thank God Its Friday...

To my knowledge Peugeot Sport only do proper motorsport parts, i'm guessing the dealer will have been showing you coilovers? The Peugeot Sport stuff is way over the top for a road car - have a look on here.

You'd be much better to get a normal Eibach spring and Koni or even better - Bilstein dampers and you'll be fine.
If you want everything doing then go for the 21mm torsion bars on the rear too. 22mm bars are available but double the price!

All the prices were on that site posted above.
My 21mm bars were 316 Euros = £214.
22mm bars were miles more expensive. 23mm bars are the same price as 21mm but are a bit too hard for road use.

By the way I installed the coilovers from peugeot at 1000€ and they are great... I had billsteins on my 106 but these ones are beyond comparison me thinks...

The 21mm bars are about 30% uprated over the original 19.5mm bars. I've heard CC's have 19mm rear torsion bars.
The ride is fine - stiffer than standard but if you avoid bumpy pot holed roads and drive round bumps then they are fine.
