I purchased standard mintex discs and pads for my cup in Feb 2006, I got them for £88 from a local motor factors and they have been fine, just as good if not better than the originals, no squealing at all Ive done 11k on them and they have plenty of life left. Ive not tried them on a track...

Hi Mate I went from an FRP to my cup (52/2002) 2 years ago and have not looked back, the cup I purchased had a FRSH and 20k on the clock, ive put an exhaust on it as the original rusted off, 2 new headlight bulbs, discs and pads all round, 4 tyres and the usual service costs which are cheaper...

Cheers for the replies, is the price for the one on ebay a fair one or can I get this cheaper elsewhere? Does it come with a new 90 degree elbow or would I need to get a hillpower/samco hose, could I use the existing inlet elbow?

Whilst hoovering the footwell in my 172 cup and my trophy, I noticed a button on the floor where the throttle pedal movement ends (at full throttle), does anyone know what this button is for? The Pedal pushes this button down when the throttle is fully open Cheers

Hi Mate Ive just gone from a mk1 vee to a trophy, I also own a cup. Your right about the trophy feeling stiffer and slightly slower, my cup only has a decat and prospeed exhaust with a panel filter but in a straight line it is slightly quicker but driving on a good a road, the trophy instills...

I own both a MK1 Vee & a 172 cup, both totally different ball games. I use my Vee for every day use (work and gym, e.t.c) with no problems at all, the bonnet storage will hold a few bags of whatever and you can always put things in the passenger footwell if need be. As other have said, off the...

Can anyone help me with this please? The trip computer (172 cup) keeps resetting itself every time I turn the car off/on. Not had any problems with this before. Everything resets, mileage, mpg, distance left in tank, average speed e.t.c Once i turn of the engine and start it up again...

Pete182cup, im in Abergavenny mate . . Welsh172, ive got an unsilcenced decat and full exhaust system on my 172 cup from Prospeed and its not that loud, its quiet compared to how my vee sounds at the mo! :) Cant wait to get my vee back, she is in desperate need of a wash!

Mine matey, not long had new system on her but dare I say it, its 2 loud! Charlie is busy redesigning the baffles to try and eradicate the 3k boom! In fairness, the car sounds a beast when you accelerate but when you are cruising around in 6th gear and the engine is revving under 3k you cant...

Im from Abergavenny and have a 172 cup, im sure there is another in Crickhowell!? I see plenty of 182's on my way to work on the A465

Russ 0016, what mod will they actually be doing?! The common fault that 3 different technicians from my 3 local but different renault dealerships knew about apparently only takes an hour, I was originally charged £64 for an hours work before i kicked up a fuss and didnt get charged, it was the...

I had the mod carried out by Abergavenny autos (renault dealer) last wknd on my 172 cup, it didnt stop the creaking/grinding noise, i kicked off and they had the car back on the ramps, they apparently then greased the antiroll bar bushes and this has fixed it (not sure how). i didnt get charged...

MattW, took my car to local renault ystrdy to be checked, i mentioned the common fault & they seemed to know about it, i left my car there for 2 hours, they carried out the mod but when i drove out of the carpark nothing had changed, still making a noise. After the car being back up on the ramp...

My car has a creaking/grinding sound when im on full lock in either direction but the sound also appears when i pull off slowly and when im coming to a stop even with the wheels pointing straight. Is this the strut or a bottom ball joint/bearing/driveshaft problem?! The car steers perfectly and...

Where can i get a decat for my 172 cup and how much? Andy Gdi, will you be selling a decat for the mk2 172 along side the one you have offered for the 182 that will stop the warning light coming on?

P1PRX is yet to contact me to confirm the test on my car, you have my mobile number so can you call me to let me know if you do still plan to test my 172 cup!?
