    And Peugeot dont know why either.
    The steering lock, because it just doesn't happen due to an engine fault, it's just not possible! It's a mechanical lock like the one on your front door, no electonics involved. Key goes in, turns, releases lock, that simple.

    I'm sorry, this is absolute complete and utter hysteria. Got an old Escort here that cuts out once a day, I might get round to fixing it at some point!

    Type any modern car into google, followed by "cutting out", and see what you find. Come back and tell me this is just a Peugeot problem.....

    Fiesta https://www.rac.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=2848
    Polo http://www.usedcarmart.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=11824
    Yaris http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/forum/post/index.htm?t=81216

    And that was three I picked at random.....

    The 206 might be OK for women, or men with very small feet, otherwise you'll get your foot stuck between the pedals. Also the pedals are irritatingly offset to the right.
    I used to think that good grammar is important, but now I know that good wine is importanter.

    Yes, something worth remembering, the 106 is the same too.

    The acceleator pedal is easy to "miss" in these, as it's tiny compared to most cars, and is stuck right up against the kick panel!
