Here is my car, it's a peugeot 106 1.1 "Zest2" in met blue. Not very quick but fine for me coz i'm still learning! Not many mods at the moment, i've just put some of my surfy stickers on and added some mats inside. It also came with a clarion cd player so i'm pleased with that. Pretty minimal otherwise, just a sunroof. It'll progress with time, hopefully one day i'll end up with this! -

Can't say i've seen many 106s in this colour, it's darker than most blue ones i've seen and more metallic. It's nicer imo. Clean car, I'm sure you're gonna have some great times with it Webby - she'll probably end up with me or her little bro washing it while she watches!

Got some speakers here that I really wanted to fit today but couldn't coz of the snow! They're Pioneer and look really good, hope they sound as good. I'll post some pics up when they're in, and I've got some pink cw stickers from the meet too.

but please do not drill the airbox
if your gona do things to it do them so they are easily put back to standard or may appeal to everyone. you try selling a car tghen explaining why its got a 'drilled air box'

Sorry scoop but I agree with Gary, She's not gonna keep this one forever! lol, and when she gets her GTi, she might as well do the decent thing and get an induction kit rather than just drilling the box.
Whelan I remember the fun we had with your 106, that thing was fantastic for handbrakes.

a)induction kits often give a loss in power b)drilled airbox costs chuff all,gives the noise,increases response,and keeps the air cool,may increase power c)a replacement airbox from a scrappy at selling time will cost pittence
In my eyes,thats the way to go. My airbox is beyond drilled,its custom modified into a ram air enclosed filter with the whole lower front section removed and cold air fed in,the roar is sexual

yuo cant drill a 106 1.1 airbox cos of the position in the engine bay, remember i had one aswell, which my dad now owns.
You would be better off getting a k&n induction kit, my dad threw mine in the bin, sorry. it fits right over the throttlebody and gives a nice sound, i also had a 4" backbox on mine. was loud and i liked it but i know some people didnt.
