Why do you hate them so much? I find them pretty good.

I don't like to criticize other cars, but I do accept that it would be easier for me to believe that you hate Ladas or something like that, but why Peugeot?

I was talking to Cotterick actually :)... I didn't know you hated them too.

Technical difficulties? well, I don't know much about Peugeots... They're not sold in the US so I'm not used to them but I do like the designs.

The 206 wheelbase was too short.
They wanted a longer wheelbase for more stability at speed.
With the "taming down" of most events, the nimbleness personified by eth original 205 is no longer needed.
Short wheelbase cars are a nightmare to keep in a straight line off tarmac :(

They also cleverly were able to use the stronger 307CC floorpan and get away with welding on the removable roof. THere was debate whether it would be allowed for a while :) A clever solution to a difficult problem - making a near-production shell strong enough without LOTS of extra weight !!

tell me matra is it true that the Ford Ka has the same wheelbast as the Impretza? i heard it soewhere but didnt know if it ws true, f this is the case then the 206 shouldnt have a problem with wheelbase either unless it is becaue the wheels on th Ka are right in the corner and the 206's arent

2448mm for Ka, 3620mm length
2520mm for Impreza, 4350mm length
2610mm for the 307CC, 4005mm length

So the Ka is only 8cm shorted than the Impreza, but it has half the power, so the traction-induced instability won't be there :)

Note the 307s shorter overhang than the Subaru too, better for the tight stuff.

the pug had huge guards because it needed and extra 20mm (2 cm) (half an inch?) of length for WRC rules, if you noticed the 307 is MUCH MUCH faster then the 206, and fits the rules. why not use it? peugeots are tough durable frogs. my friends bro (the one with the 205 gti) has a 504 with custom engine, its still a normal engine, but with injection and other small bits, NOT ricer style. it sounds like a V8...

Too young to remember that lambasting the Sierra shape got !!
The Cosworth and RS500 went on to become a definitive race and rally winning car and every driver wanted one to compete in.
Ugliness can grow on you :) especially if it's fast and goes round corners better than anything else !!

Personally I agree, I think the rear deck treatment on both CC's are U-G-L-Y.
Thye look like an ex boat-deck designer got accidently hired for a day :)
