...::: Marky's 206 Final Feature :::...

Possibly X2C’s most famous show car and one of the top Peugeot 206’s in the country is owned by one of X2C’s owners, 26 year old Mark Smith. Starting life as a standard 206 bought from brand new, Mark would embark on a long modifying trail that would lead him right to the top of the UK’s modding scene.

The end finish is something that makes you want to look and ask, is that really a 206? The “206z” has been fitted with a wide arch kit made for a Nissan 350z and this has also been modified to dramatically change the appearance. Combine this with 20in wheels (a first for a UK 206), lambo doors, a vinyl bonnet and roof, lots of smoothing to the doors and boot and Porsche mirrors, all covered with a stylish Piaggio Bianco Diamante White Pearl paint job.



The interior has had as much detail put into it as the exterior. Esquiss door cards have been customised to house the Audiobahn components then sprayed to match the outside of the car. The dash has been smoothed and sprayed like the door cards have, the centre console has been custom built with Dakota digital dials and trimmed in vinyl by D:Class. Carbon backed Cobra Misano seats trimmed in white leather hide the immense install behind.


The rear seats have been removed and this area now houses a custom install holding 4 x 12in Audiobahn subs and 2 large amplifiers. The install is both quality and loud using some of the best gear that Audiobahn have to offer. Those that know this system or have seen it at shows and cruises will know just how loud it can go.



This 206 has been seen on countless magazines throughout Europe and has also won many trophies throughout the UK.

Unfortunately the car has just been sold to a new owner but we hope to see it at shows throughout the year.
