Security of metal roof, relaxed drive
Awful driving position, cheap interior, a touch dear
Supermini-size convertible takes the best points of the ever-popular 206 - but some of the worst too.
Those offset, awkward pedals, high-mounted seats, and a steering wheel that only adjusts for rake make the 206 less than comfortable for some. Although the ride quality is smooth and refinement levels are adequate - there's little wind buffeting roof-down, even at speed (which is removed if you purchase the windbreak from the accessory catalogue) - the unacceptable compromises of the driving position account for the low score. When even the manufacturer admits it's a 2+2, you know not to expect abundant space. And sure enough, it's cramped. The rear seats are an unpleasant place to be if you're tall or unless you are travelling a very short distance, and even then it's best to have the roof down as the rear screen does impinge on headroom. The already compact boot is further restricted when the roof is lowered - it takes up about half of the capacity on offer. Although things are better in the front, it's still not overly spacious. It's adequate, and features both a CD player and remote stalk controls. It struggles to overcome the wind roar when the roof's down, but does a reasonable job. The separate centrally mounted display is neat.
