Peugeot 106

The Peugeot 106 is a supermini produced by French automaker Peugeot from September 1991 to July 2003, one of the longest running production cars ever made in Europe. It replaced the Peugeot 104 as Peugeot's entry-level offering. In January 2005, it was replaced by the Peugeot 107, which in turn was superseded by the Peugeot 108.

In January 1996, the Peugeot 106 also formed the basis for the near identical looks and size Citroën Saxo, and at this time the 106 received a facelift which saw all engines get fuel injection and equipment levels raised.

Rallye version

Marketed as having "fewer frills, more thrills", the Rallye version did not have alloy wheels, central locking or electrically-operated windows to keep the weight down to 825 kilograms, powered by a 1.3-litre petrol engine developing 100 bhp at 7,200rpm. It had a five-speed manual gearbox. The vehicle could be competitive in racing, but also made a practical family car. The Rallye also got a facelift in 1996, sporting a larger 1.6-litre petrol engine developing 103 hp at 6,200rpm.

The Puzzle (band)

The Puzzle is a Hungarian indie rock band based in Budapest but originally from Kaposvár, Hungary. They were one of the first bands from Hungary who settled down outside their native country to try to promote their band. They moved to London, The United Kingdom in 2004 after releasing their first record, Dream Your Life.

History

The Puzzle was formed in Kaposvár in 1997. They started gigging with playing in small clubs, then bigger festivals in Hungary. In 2000 they released their first demo entitled Dream Your Life which received mainly positive reviews, but the real breakthrough happened in the summer of 2000. The Puzzle won the first prize on "Pepsi Starmaker" Competition: a record deal with Universal Music Hungary. The recordings had started in December 2000, but unfortunately due to the poor conditions of the Hungarian record industry it broke off soon after.

After almost 3 years The Puzzle finalized the album, which was finally released in 2003 October by Universal Hungary. By that time the band knew that it's impossible to reach success with such kind of music in Hungary, therefore they decided to start again right from the beginning, but not in Hungary though in London, The United Kingdom.
