Bought a 206 Rolland Garros, opinions please - Anton - 04-04-2014 Evening guys, picked this up the other night. After some advice on service items etc.. Its a 1.6 16v (tu5jp4, same as 106 gti/saxo vts). Any idea what oil/spark plugs to use? Also any advice on the 206? Anything i need to check for? Thanks RE: Bought a 206 Rolland Garros, opinions please - vlj - 04-04-2014 (04-04-2014, 07:01 PM)Anton Wrote: Also any advice on the 206? Anything i need to check for? Your handbag/makeup somewhere on the passenger footwell? RE: Bought a 206 Rolland Garros, opinions please - Ruan - 04-04-2014 Btw, just a quick FYI, the engine is different from the TU5J4 in the 106/Saxo, the JP4 had naff cams, but massive head ports and bigger valves... The JP4 is also flybywire... And yeah, ensure there are no scissors or combs flying about... Genuinely dangerous shit... RE: Bought a 206 Rolland Garros, opinions please - Dum-Dum - 04-04-2014 Asking what to check for after buying the car is a bit silly but if i were you I'd check for genetials in your trousers as I'm guessing that if you have bought a 206 Rolland Garros you don't have any, certainly not male ones at any rate. RE: Bought a 206 Rolland Garros, opinions please - Anton - 04-04-2014 Flol cheers so far guys, keep it coming. RE: Bought a 206 Rolland Garros, opinions please - Chris1357 - 04-04-2014 I loved my old one Over there <. Same as any Peugeot's really rear beam seat belt mouts Ect. Chris. RE: Bought a 206 Rolland Garros, opinions please - ozonehostile - 04-04-2014 I quite like them haha If you care that much and can be bothered follow the tried and tested methods of the 16v 106 boys The jp4 is far superior to the old j4, apart from like Ruan says, cams are a bit disappointing. You can rectify by getting your hands on j4 engine, swapping over the cams and followers from the j4. The jp4 has much larger valves and skirt jets, the rods also have press fittings which is kind of annoying if you ever wanted to take the engine apart Fly by wire throttle also annoys me on these as the engine is too quick for it so slightly delayed when you're stamping on the throttle RE: Bought a 206 Rolland Garros, opinions please - lolsteve - 04-04-2014 The "worse" cams for emissions or something? or to make a more balanced power range? RE: Bought a 206 Rolland Garros, opinions please - devils_fuel - 04-04-2014 please say it doesnt look like this? ![]() slightly nicer in this guise ![]() RE: Bought a 206 Rolland Garros, opinions please - Anton - 04-04-2014 Cheers so far. Getting some service bits ordered. Presume 5w40 is fine? Haha yes the interior is lovely... RE: Bought a 206 Rolland Garros, opinions please - Toms306 - 04-04-2014 I usually like Roland Garros interiors, in like 205/106/306.....but in that it's bloody awful! ![]() Hope you enjoy it anyway....or it serves its purpose at least haha. RE: Bought a 206 Rolland Garros, opinions please - Uberderv - 04-04-2014 Used to have a HDI, was a decent car. Only probs were beam, Seat subframe locking mechanism and A/C. Was very reliable even at 160hp ish ........ ![]() RE: Bought a 206 Rolland Garros, opinions please - ozonehostile - 05-04-2014 (04-04-2014, 08:30 PM)lolsteve Wrote: The "worse" cams for emissions or something? or to make a more balanced power range? Think it was to make it a more refined engine since it was used in a pretty large variety of psa cars (206,307,c4,c2 etc etc) In this guise they're 107bhp while the old j4 (essentially the same engine) was 120bhp the main difference being the cams and inlet manifold. Jp4 is alot smoother to drive around in than the slightly savage j4 (04-04-2014, 08:48 PM)devils_fuel Wrote: please say it doesnt look like this? Cream leather ftw! Comfy as f*ck that interior. Admittedly it does look a lot better in the flesh RE: Bought a 206 Rolland Garros, opinions please - Anton - 05-04-2014 It is seriously comfortable, i'm seriously falling for it. I may just keep it. Bought a 206 Rolland Garros, opinions please - devils_fuel - 05-04-2014 It's just that cream colour, tan wtf RE: Bought a 206 Rolland Garros, opinions please - Piggy - 05-04-2014 I love this model... Trying to convince the mrs to buy one, then I can xud it...then she can drive long distance hauls with me all comfy. Love it mate RE: Bought a 206 Rolland Garros, opinions please - Anton - 05-04-2014 Piggy you want it? I only got it as a stop gap.... RE: Bought a 206 Rolland Garros, opinions please - Anton - 08-05-2014 Rolland has been serving me very well indeed. The last 3 tanks have averaged between 41-43mpg, god knows how! I am genuinely shocked haha. Infact i may have fallen in love with it a bit... RE: Bought a 206 Rolland Garros, opinions please - Anton - 16-05-2014 Anyone want to buy this? ![]() RE: Bought a 206 Rolland Garros, opinions please - r3k1355 - 16-05-2014 (04-04-2014, 08:48 PM)devils_fuel Wrote: please say it doesnt look like this?
