Hot Hatch | Peugeot 106 Rallye

[@KOL630]

Never heard of a 106 being described as super comfortable however they are great little machines.

[@cemsarioglu5947]

This is an S2 with a 1.6 lt engine. Every Pug lover knows that. How come the presenter makes such a big mistake?

[@tvaudits]

Does a car review video, talking about the wrong engine 🤦‍♂

[@JCW-jx6ld]

1.3 ?? That’s wrong that’s the S2 1.6 103hp , I had one .It also has rear discs unlike the 1.3 S1.

[@tau-ceti]

I had the 1.3 - cracking car.

[@renatomorais8136]

That's right, had one also and it was a 1.6 8V (the GTI being the same engine with 16V)

[@barcaleicleic7781]

C'est bon...

[@westsideisdabest7825]

My first car was a 1.1 indigo blue 106. The breaks were spongy and the clutch was nearly gone, but I loved it and is still the most fun I've ever had driving a car. Dream would be to get my hands on a 106 rallye at some point.

[@tomgray9161]

My brother had a 106, we called it Pierre. Shame it was the 1.1 Zest and not the Rallye or GTI. Keep it up James, I’ll be sure to come see you when Tier 4 is done and dusted in London.

[@musicdreamer767]

I’m owning Peugeot 106 Quicksliver 1360 cc 8 v 75 hp produced 1998.I have that car almost 8 years.I insert PILOT SPORT Air Intake and changed the exhaust into loud one.The car drives very well and I didn’t have any problems yet.Farest place that I’ve been with the car was Italy and French Alps.Such amazing little sport car that not consuming so much petrol.It’s disappointing that Peugeot 106 was stopped in production in 2002.Great video by the way.Kind Regards

[@m4xa_]

I got the same a 1998 quiksilver as my first car it's been 3 months and im in love with it. I hope you still have it and enjoying it as much as i am.

[@jamesclarkson3009]

Many years ago I had a 106 1.1 only 60bhp but still a lot of fun. I also had a Saxo but somehow prefered the 106 it just felt a bit more raw and involving. These days I'd love a s1 1.3 Rallye or GTi but the prices are really up there now.

[@-DC-]

Similarly had a Saxo VTR back in the day my god what a bloody awful but at the same time absolutely incredible machine, the amount of fun it provided was incredible.

[@joaopaulo-ms5it]

Bought a cheap one cause I used to like seeing them when I was younger, planned to keep it for only a few months but liked it so much it's now being fully restored. Such a fun little car.

[@shane555]

This makes me miss my old Rallye so much! I wish I'd never sold it 😭

[@gavinivers8941]

Wasn't the Phase 1 a 1300 ( alloy block ), and the Phase 2 1600? That is a Phase 2, different front, door handles, and a 1600cc engine ( still 8 valve but cast iron block )

[@asphalthedgehog6580]

Yes. This is an 8 valve phase II Rallye. The 1.3 phase I was white, red or black. Phase II in black, blue & white.

[@toadinthehole8085]

It's 1600cc phase 2 with 105hp not 103hp like it the 1300cc phase 1.. the phase 1 had a fancy F1 design intake manifold . I owned a blue phase 2 and the top speed was 121mph on the flat . Was quick ISH to about 110, also it will rev to 7800 RPM which is way up past the red . 7100 RPM red line . But basically the phase 2 is a saxo vtr 90hp engine with a cam . One can that is with them been 8 valve . The 90hp saxo I had year's late would do pretty much the same on the same road 120

[@tau-ceti]

@@toadinthehole8085 S2 was just a glorified VTR engine in my opinion. The original 1.3 was way more fun.

[@TotoGeenen]

yep, tracked the license plate. This is a 1.6

[@chamberz21]

i had a phase 1 red... miss it so much

[@olli_ster3562]

It's my first car, a 106, 1.1L zest. Silver, Im in love with it upgraded speakers and stereo but leaving the rest

[@etiennethibault9247]

Hahaha no way mate I just brought my first car... Peugeot 106 1.1 independence. Keep it stock mate that’s what I’m doing because in 4 years time my model will be a classic. Cmon 106 gang 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼😂

[@Ettsate]

106 Colorline 1.1 60hp here. Keep it stock,you still can have a lot of fun with it if you choose the right roads. And if you need more, buy a rallye, a s16 or a saxo vts.

[@pete5534]

Slick. It’s hard to beat small, small cars.

[@RyderUwU]

I got a 106 sport, it's also lovely

[@leeds182]

Jeepers. You really need to get the basics right.

[@jesperolsen217]

The basic information is ok - yes, not all the small details are correct but the message he wanted to bring is the fun of driving and looking at this little French motor🇫🇷 and he made his point in my book

[@peteadams7916]

Brings back good memories from my early days of driving! 👍

[@LukeGB003]

I don’t like french cars. But I have to say. The 106 is such a cool car. My grandad had a green one. It wasn’t a Rallye but a Diesel 4 door. It was a 1996 model. Lasted quite a long time.

[@AAARREUUUGHHHH]

That intro was CLEAN! 🔥

[@jermainerobinson7098]

Great video love the old car videos 👏🏾💯

[@mick123789]

The guy is pretty clueless, doesn’t mention the S1 which is less rare. Pug sport exhaust is an aftermarket part not factory. Steering wheel is not from an S2 and the red belts are from the S1 Rallye. JDR motors does a much better review on this car.

[@jmalenko]

“...so, if you want something a little less uncomplicated...” It’s more complicated than the Yaris? Well done otherwise.

[@sje106]

Straight away wrong info on engines and colours. The Series 2, as in this video, is a 1600cc. And peak power is at 6200 not 7200. The Series 1 came in white, red or black and was a 1300cc.

[@tau-ceti]

Massive error - This is an S2, which is a 1.6L....the 1.3 was the better car.

[@virdesire]

That's exactly the model of the 1st car i drive, my brother had a 106. Fun car but the gear box is very easy to break.

[@TBATTIECYCLING]

Top car, something fun for the collection

[@Leathersladekitchen]

Filmed local to me, the Golding Barn sign gave that away

[@clivesilk3501]

i just watched the car sos restoration of one of these ! same blue

[@chrispaulson670]

Had a s1 white one. Did road rallies in it and the Curbrough sprint championship. Great car. Not sure what the s2 was like, which this vid shows I think, which is 1600?

[@HugoAmasing]

Bit heavier, bit torquier, but feels a bit less angry tbh. The S1 is the one to have if you're here purely for the driving but for some unknown reason my heart goes to the S2.

[@goncalogalhoz3833]

That`s really a pretty nice car

[@Dori744]

Where is Chris Harris ? I see a great car, but it isn't drifted through Wales ? What happened ? Chris was sick ? We miss him, tell him that.

[@ChoPi-Eww]

What hasn’t already been said about this car? They’re one of the few ‘90’s classic icons that are still affordable in the US. I question the editing a bit with this video; the close up of the aftermarket air filter seemed to miss the point. Also, why does he say, “Let’s go for a drive,” and then we cut to the gas station? Are they trying to say the 1.3 has poor fuel consumption?

[@JLo1960]

Poor research for this vid. That's an S2 which had a 1.6 inline four making 103 bhp. The original S1 had a 1.3 making 100bhp. Do the research properly otherwise the vid is a waste of time!.

[@nathandrake6531]

s2 was basically a saxo vtr engine. not a 1300

[@tau-ceti]

s2 wasn't even worthy of the Rallye badge.

[@freejrs]

What a hardship having to pull over for the truck. Looked like someone had pissed in your cornflakes.

[@another3997]

Seems he's not the only one. Lorries and two way, single-track roads don't generally mix well. Especially if you're in a near mint, and quite rare classic car, being forced toward a ditch lined with paint killing bushes.

[@tau-ceti]

Lol i just can't watch this...the 1.6L is totally different to what he describes. The 1.6L didn't rev as high nor did it have the explosive top end.

[@jamesjtechnic1196]

Agree. If you're going to do a review you should at lease check your facts.

[@pugpete1]

Yeah, the s1 came on cam @ about 4kish and was pretty savage for a standard production car. The s2 was still a great car and could still hustle around corners, but the engine was a lot less interesting.

[@tau-ceti]

@@pugpete1 It was actually more like 5k - the high compression plus the aggressive cam profile really pushed the power curve into the high revs. It was useless below 5k and to get the most out of it, you really had to change gear above 7k, otherwise you would be below 5k again with no power. In short...you had to thrash it.

[@orbion2]

So engine capacity for the homologation 106 rallye was dropped to 1.3? In the ad it says "under the bonnet is a 103bhp 1.6-litre 8-valve inline-four". So it's not the original engine?

[@ExMachinaEngineering]

The story is true. But for the previous model. Huge mistake from people who really didn't do their research. Or a massive editing cock up. In any case, they shouldn't have aired that

[@sxrory]

yeah series 2 this which was 1.6 the 1.3's are the older shape

[@orbion2]

​@@sxrory He says the car makes 100hp at 7200rpm, which is the 1.3. The 1.6's peak power is at 6200 rpm. He also says it's interesting that this car has the 'TU-engine', but all 106s have TU engines, even the diesel engines are TU engines. It's just kind of confusing that he starts of by talking about the phase 1.3 engined phase 1, when the car that is advertised is a 1.6 phase 2. I don't know much about Peugeots, just to be clear.

[@simes205]

Please get your information correct.

[@orbion2]

@@simes205 me?

[@mr-wx3lv]

I would love one... even an old codger like me ...🤭

[@cutdepiefails6596]

That filter is so wrong. There is nothing but the trophy ram air. Anything else is wrong. Plus the rallye s2 is a 1.6 8v.

[@JakubAblewicz]

106R is not cheap 😜

[@chamberz21]

I thought the facelift had a 16v engine

[@nathandrake6531]

do you research for god sake

[@burnzy3210]

1:55 Mmm nice hot air intake LOL

[@Dave106Rallye]

What the hell are you talking about Collecting Cars? You're driving a S2 106 Rallye car but talking about a S1 106 Rallye. The S2 is a boring drive compared to the S1.

[@tau-ceti]

S2 is just a stripped out VTR really.

[@HenryOCarmichaelSmith]

S2 Rallye's are 1.6 not 1.3

[@paulofreitas681]

Dear god reviewing a 1.6 s2 as a 1.3 s1 How da hell? 😂😂

GREAT CAR INDEED... GET THE SIMPLE THINGS CORRECT DESCRIBED A S1 1.3 AND LOOKING AT A S2 1.6 ... HORSE IT ON GET THE SOUND LOUDER.. WHY PUT A S1 STEERING WHEEL ON A S2 PUT A KD WHEEL ON IF YOU WANT SOMETHING NICE RALLYE STYLE.

Too much hype around these Rallyes they were never that great and still arent the 306 Rallye is the one to have !

[@another3997]

You are entitled to your opinion, but clearly the 106 and the 306 are in different classes, so they aren't competing against each other. Apples and oranges. Buy the car you prefer, but don't belittle people whose choices are different to yours.

@@dan3092 yes. I drove the phase I 1.3 Rallye, XS and XSI, the phase II rallye and bought two GTI's, a 1997 and a 2001. The 1997 is the better car, due to emission regulations. Somehow the lesser car is now the car to own.
