I was considering a duel fuel LPG conversion for my car, when I was asked by the garage if I travelled in europe. I said that I did, and they asked if I used the Eurotunnel. I answered again that I did, and they then told me that LPG isn't allowed in the tunnel!
When I looked at the Eurotunnel website, I noticed to my horror that not only was it true that LPG isn't allowed...

disturbingly the company had chosen to flaunt its wares on thepublic using an image of one of those disgusting little souless frenchcars!!

Maybe as some sort of car-karma punishment for that comment I drove a
206 for a couple of hundred miles yesterday (a shiney new red one, ohhh). You are right, it really looks great. Unfortuanately I think Peugeot spent 90% of the budget on the exterior design before they realised they had to design an interior. It is cheap, nasty, plastic, uncomfortable, dated and noisy... very, very, very noisy. Did I mention that it is noisy? Like fighter plane in a death dive noisy!
So it may have been car-karma that made me drive one, but my worst fears about the experience weren't any match with the terrible experience that driving one of these 'beautiful' cars turned out to be. Please spare a moment for the poor sap sitting behind the wheel of the next one you see out there on the road, they may look like they are smiling, but I can assure you it is a grimace.
