An arrow usually consists of a shaft with an arrowhead attached to the front end, with fletchings and a nock at the other.
Arrow sizes vary greatly across cultures, ranging from eighteen inches to five feet (45 cm to 150 cm).[2] However, most modern arrows are two-and-a-half to three feet long (75 cm to 90 cm), similar to the length of English war arrows (which were made to be half the height of the man who shot them).[2] Very short arrows have been used, shot through a guide attached either to the bow (an “overdraw”) or to the archer’s wrist (the Turkish “siper”).[3] These may fly farther than heavier arrows, and an enemy without suitable equipment may find himself unable to return them.

The Peugeot 106 was introduced in the autumn of 1991, as the French marque’s entry level car slotting in beneath the 205 – although it is now largely considered the ‘true’ replacement to the 205. It was a substantial development of the Citroën AX, intended to make it both heavier and safer. It was aimed directly at cars like the Renault Clio, which had gone into production a year earlier, and as a more modern alternative to the slightly larger 205 which had been a massive success for Peugeot and was still proving popular almost a decade after its launch. Winning praise for its modern styling, comfortable ride, excellent handling and cheap running costs, the 106 quickly became popular. Going against the appeal were limited interior space and budget interior plastics.
