    I only passed my test about 6 months ago and my first car is a Peugeot 206 1.9 diesel.
    Sounds like a tug boat and can be very temperemental in first, but I still love it.
    If you close your eyes, you can imagine you are sat in an Aston Martin with a duff engine

    I know that feeling..the Asstrap has a lazy tappet, and in the morning for the first few minutes it sounds like a subaru due to the resultant misfire. Good fun.

    I will get it replaced, one day.

    That is one thing I liked about my old Honda, After I had the timeing 'tweaked' it wound all the way round to 9250 RPM and it sounded like you were driving an old style F1 car

    LOL Maybe he should try driving an old 911

    Never had any issues with mine. In all honesty the V6 was under powered for what it was, but made a nice noise.
