Needed something with 5 doors and a reasonably sized boot, so sold the 206 and bought... (toward the end of last year)
...totally standard apart from a Pipercross filter on it now which i picked up from eBay for £20
Don't plan on doing anything at all to it really, want an ST220 next year so reluctant to spend any money on something that will be worth less than <£1000 by the time i come to want to sell!

My dads got one, and considdering its a 2.5, its really quite good on fuel.
I absolutely love the engine note. I've always thought it would sound brilling with an aftermarket exhaust and filter.
Heres my dads.
Out of curiosity, how many miles has yours done?
My dads need all 3 cats changing before it'll go through its MOT, and its only done about 50,000 miles.

Yup, 2 before the centre cention, one after (i think).
He was quoted £1200 supplied and fitted.
The cars probably only worth £2200.

if the cats are part of the manifolds ect like some vauxhall's are, be a costly job.
