I didn't say it was new material! I think I may have even found it ages ago from this very site...

No worries. I think I saw it before the 206 was even released. :)

Yes you get a lot of that you know ;)

but remember kids, lift off oversteer is cool :cool::thumbup:

Lift off oversteer in a 206? Does that even exist?

Unless you drive a 206, or a fabia...

er, peugeots are notorious for it but tbh fair only for the last 15 -20 years :)

In fact, ever since the 205 came out, so maybe 25 years or so?

it was the 205 i referring to and i was guessing at its age :)

Likewise, but I remember the 205Gti having an F or G prefix!

F is 88, g is 89.

After owning a 206 for a few years I can confidently say, Oh yes it does.:eek:

i have had loads of cars with lift off oversteer

205 gti

saxo vts

C2 vtr

Clio 182 (the best one for it lol)

and even the C4 vts will do it if provoked

big wide roundabouts were my friend you can provoke them into it at really low speeds not the high speed loose control crash style demonstrated

the gtb aint quite as easy to do it in tho

MY Old Old Renault 5 was prone to it in the wet......

Our 'pool car' new shape corsas are very easy to oversteer, even without a lift off, there are plenty of roundabouts in West Sussex....

:rolleyes:

You can make any car "lift of oversteer", it's just some are easier to do it on than others.

Even my LDV Maxus does it

I first learnt of it in a Mini (the proper one)- ended up the wrong way round on the opposite side of the road, learnt how to handle it in a Mk1 Golf :) .
