Are there any known problems with the transaxle on the 206? Regards Charlie

Not to my knowledge! The other owners I've talked to say that the drivetrain and frame are quite robust. The body does rust, though, and mine has plenty. Should be a bit easier for you to get parts in the UK, too.
Today I procrastinated on fixing the IP timing by dropping the gas tank for a proper cleaning and pulling all the old fuel lines for replacement. I probably will just swap in my spare OM615 -- not sure if it's worth my time trying to free this presumably stuck piston ring with MMO soaks and a future italian tune up when I have a spare ready to swap in, and then popping the head off the original engine.
