I had a random over on Saturday picking up parts who isn't on Facebook who knows this car!
If I didn't have a calling for an Elise and a 3rd child on the way, I'd go high boost
Listed my Cup at £1600 http://cliosport.net/threads/172-cup-%C2%A31600.809009/ expecting to get offers at £1400-1500 max.
But no interest, is it overpriced?
I've asked Andy for discount before and he's found a little on his price, he knocked 20% off last autumn as they bought in a load of bits and sold them on cheaper.
It seems to be reliable, no project thread as bought it complete but know 3 other ED customers and none have issues with LB.
I've an uprated Helix organic, it's a bit annoying day to day but not as bad as a paddle. I know a couple are still using Valeo's without issue.
Gearbox could die tomorrow, mine required a major rebuild just for standard power.
ED low boost is great, mine has done 9k now from memory

Unit18 just did a hunter alignment for me and pointed out that I had a major issue, but they got it as best as they could for a track day the following day. Turned out I had 1 Cup wishbone and 1 non-Cup.
I've had no issues with where Chris has taken the Cup when he's had it, and I'll be asking...
Chris has always taken mine somewhere to be done when he's had the suspension apart.
Or once I used http://www.unit18.co.uk/ in MK.
Unless you're doing track days I wouldn't bother spending loads on alignment and corner weighting.
I've also saved http://www.jtechautomotive.co.uk/contact-us/...
Engine Dynamics.
Mine is still being used as a daily, it's averaging mid 20s to the gallon but it's cracking fun.
My Cup will be for sale next week if you want a cheap car, with recent full suspension refresh, belts due next year so boost it this year, and then Megane head gasket with the...
