Hey guys, I'm going to be looking for a Cup to purchase in about a month. I've not owned a Clio before. So could you give me a quick run down on what to look out for on the 172 Cups or MK2's in general. Thanks a lot.

I dunno so much, things like that are difficult to rectify, because with the sunlight hitting the rest of the paintwork it will inevitably affect it, which leaves the paint underneath the stripes a different shade.

That would p*ss me right off.

I think he means, when she drives and he's in the passenger seat.

Now that's more like it, that actually looks good. Funny how simple changes go a long way. That's how they all should be.

How much does a new rear bumper cost? :) Surely someone has previously had the balls to try this. It'd be interesting if someone had any photos.

I sure do drive a Ka, I can think of far worse cars to have as a first car, soon to be replaced with a Cup (if you were wondering why I'm hanging around here) ok, as far as exhausts go, here's maybe something a bit more constructive - has anyone tried to modify the bumper so it looks as if...

Way to ruin a Cup.

Good point.. first sensible thing you've said all day.

I agree, it's a shame people don't understand the concept of 'nice'. 182 style = nice. Not scraping the bloody floor.

HIC don't charge extra for mods (within reason), but last time I phoned I think they started asking for a small admin fee - a load of shite really but hey..

The 172 range had a stealth exhaust fitted for a reason, imo - it looks shite with one on show. Awful. *shudder*

hahaha ^

It's awful, and out of all those friggin pictures you didn't take a full-on back-end shot? And another thing, if that's not over-the-top modding, I don't know what is.

I can't wait to get my hands on a Cup. Took one for a test drive the other week and loved it. :D

haha, do the Silver ones come with air-con then? Or any other refinements?

That's criminal.

Hmm.. I quite like the silver. I was not aware that they made so many in silver. Blue still owns tho. ;) I'll hopefully be getting one in March.. if the right one comes along around that time.

Hi, can someone explain what the deal is with silver 172 Cups? How many silver ones were made? I've seen a few on the net, I thought all of them were supposed to be Mondial blue.

I don't know much about Xenons but I hope there's a good reason you bought that BMW and ditched the Clio, brother. :)

Halfords! lol, that's excellent.

I have an N70, good phones.

Looks very tidy, apart from I hate seeing 172's with exhausts on show.

Prefer the Turinis. Don't know why anybody would want to change them, you should have just got them sprayed white.

Very cool. Car sounds nice.

Yea, congrats anyway man.. If it was your wedding.

Whoever took those needs to lay off the booze.
