Is the peugeot 206 car right or left hand drive?

Whether a car is right or left hand drive is dependent on in what country it will be sold. If it is sold in England, Australia, Japan or other countries where one drives on the left side of the road then the car is right-hand-drive. If the car is sold in most of the other countries on Earth then the car would be left-hand-drive as they drive on the right side of the road. So you can see, whether a car is right or left-hand-drive is dependent on the country in which it is sold, not the make or model of car.
