Advantages: Some excellent singles Disadvantages: Sounds a bit tame now
...Can’t think of a good band which had a string of hits in the 1970s heh. Think no further than 10cc and even after they split further hits followed for Kevin Godley (the bearded one) and Lol Crème (the high pitched voiced one).
Firstly the 10cc hits in chronological order. ‘Donna’ is a simple 1950s feel pop ballad delivered by co-write Lol Crème but with some added depth from the backing. ‘Rubber Bullets’ followed a year later in 1973 and is the first track on the album to cover matters judicial or penal. An odd song about a jail riot to be quelled by force after a dance descends into violence. Well you don’t get that in a Westlife song do you. Another year later and ‘The Wall Street Shuffle’ charted as an anthem to corporate greed and the quest for money. Although the subject matter was...
Advantages: Metal roof, great looks and gr Disadvantages: Body roll which makes it feel like you are driving on top of a giant flan
...I have a black 2001 206 CC, I previously had a 1997 Mini Cooper which I absolutely adored but after five years it was time to move on. I started looking at the Lotus Elise but even an early model was in the seven thousand pound area, eventually I started looking at the 206 CC and was impressed with the looks and price tag.
Mine has full leather seats which are incredibly comfortable and I would recommend looking for one with these if you are looking for one of these cars. I have had no trouble with the roof but am waiting for something to go wrong with it as I have heard/read numerous horror stories concerning them. The car looks fantastic and the fuel economy is also very good. It is an incredibly girly car, I realised that I had bought a girls car the first time I pulled down the drivers sun visor only to find a mirror for me to do my...

Review of Peugeot 206 CC 1.6
Advantages: nippy and a convertalbe Disadvantages: expensive parts and labour
...i'm not going to give the Specs you can get them of a website, this is what i think of the car.
I brought a peugoet 206cc last year for my girlfriend,so far its not been to bad to us
The 1.6 has some kick behind. i got 120mph out it with the roof up. the peugeot has a hard ride to it, the roof works well folding back in about 45 second, streering is quite responsive.
The rear seat are a waste of time unless your a child under 7, have had 5 adults in the car on the way home from casino but it is one of the most painful things to do in life.
The boot space is good with the roof up and there is some with the roof down.
Get a warranty its a must, parts for it are expensive, the roof hydrulic pump went on ours and would have cost us £3K to replace...

Review of Peugeot 206 CC 1.6
Advantages: fast acceleration, great handling Disadvantages: gussles oil a bit
...i've had this gilera dna for just over a year and its been the best of my life. i love this bike!!!!!
i've just bought dunlop front and back tyres for this and jesus, it sticks to the road. i always manage to get my knee down at high speeds.
the accelaration is superb, beating of most peds. beware though it slows down a bit when de-resticted. the top end speed is restricted to 25-30 mph which in my mind is dangerously slow. i de-restricted mine and it reach speeds of 45-50mph. i then decided to mod my bike.
i got an after-market exhaust, gear up kit, variator kit, unrestricted my rpm clock and much more. it now reaches speed of 75mph +
the bike looks fantasic. like a superbike but with no gears and a 50cc engine.
recently i came of it sliping on some deisel or oil and the road. and at speeds of about 40mph there was no f@!k all...
Advantages: Very inventive Disadvantages: Too clever, clever at times
...All the early 10cc albums were gems of inventiveness, but they could also descend into trying to be too clever by half, and 'Sheet Music' is no exception.
It's certainly a strong album overall, with 'The Wall Street Shuffle', 'The Worst Band In The World', and 'Silly Love' all being good, witty rock songs.
It was around this time (1974) that 10cc unveiled their guitar-enhancing invention called the gizmo, and it's certainly a beautiful sound, well illustrated on 'Old Wise Men', which was witten with Eric Clapton in mind - Eric wasn't amused!
Some stuff is downright silly like 'Clockwork Creep', while other tracks only partially work such as 'Baron Samedi' and 'Oh Effendi' - too smart for their own good, at times, with some of their lyrics and musical eccentricities were 10cc.
'Hotel' and 'The Sacro-Iliac' are good fun...

Review of Sheet Music - 10cc
Advantages: The roof - excellent on sunny days Disadvantages: Leaks
...I have owned my Peugeot 206cc 2.0 for eighteen months and so i've had plenty of time to get to know my car. Before i had a 1litre Volkswagen Polo, so i wanted something a bit more stylish and with a bit of a kick. The Peugeot 206cc has delivered that.
I started looking for a new car, knowing i wanted a convertable and so i was looking for something attractive and modern but at a decent price. After looking at cars matching my criteria, i found the Peugeot 206cc was a step ahead of the rest of the field. So i now had to pick my model.
I got the 2.0 litre model as i wanted to experience a new form of power. This i got. The car does 0-60 in just over 9 seconds, which is quick enough for any normal day to day driver. My 2.0litre model had the full works; air con, leather seats, power steering, c.d. player etc... and i'd recomend...

Review of Peugeot 206 CC 2.0
Advantages: Great looks, fun to drive. Cool with the roof down etc etc Disadvantages: None to date!
...space for an adult., but as i have a wind stop I don't tend to put passengers in the back. Keep it clean with a good carnuba wax and the car gleams.
Overall I would thoroughly recommend anyone getting hold of one before all the stock goes to the newer 308cc. Never let me down yet....
Advantages: Cheap to run Disadvantages: Cold in winter
...I have never had a scooter or bike before, so decided to invest in a Malaguti Yesterday in maroon.
It's a 49.2cc (so just under 50cc really) single cylinder 2 stroke engine.
It has got both electric and kick start, and I find it extremely reliable. It doesn't like electric starts when it is freezing, but you can't fault that. Starts first kick most morning, no problem.
It has tubeless tyres, front and rear brakes, and front and rear suspension.
It has a 2 gallon (9 litres) fuel tank located just behind the seat. I usually put about 3/4 quid a week and that lasts me all week. It isn't at all expensive to run.
I buy the 2 stroke oil about once every 6 weeks, and thats only a couple of quid a bottle, so it's not breaking the bank.
There is helmet storage area underneath the seat, and it is a large comfy seat unlike...
Advantages: Excellent Speed, Reliability, Confort Disadvantages: Cheap Mirrors, Dodgy Plastics in some areas
...I have owned a 125cc Elystar for just over one year now. The Elystar is a much better scooter compared to that of other manufacturers, it features impressive security, unbelievable speed and acceleration and is a very confortable ride even over long, ruff and tiring distances
- Facts -
I have achieved 85mph on the Elystar 125 without modifications and without very much effort. (on a good day and on a empty straight road)
0 Mph to 50 Mph in about 5.5 seconds (aprox) and I'll place money on it since ive done it.
The mirrors vibrate far too much and it can be somewot difficult to see whats going on behind you.
The plastics located where your feet go are pretty poor and over a period of time they might start comming loose.
The Elystar sounds more like a big moterbike rather than the typical lawnmower sound of other scoots...
