Its not only silver Cups with CC. What gave you that idea?

My cup does that hesitant thing for the first mile or so. Is it the ECU running in some sort of Dont-Thrash-Me-Til-Im-Warm mode?

The rattles come and go. I get that instrument binnacle rattle sometimes. Very annoying as its right infront of you. The blue bits in the dash buzz sometimes as does the rear hatch after youve opened it. A lot of this is attributable to the generally terrible road surfaces we have to put up...

Same here.

I think the bottom line is go for something in between. Dont drive like a grandad at 3000rpm all the time and dont thrash it either. Just gradually give it more revs and dont sit on on a motorway for 4 hours at a constant speed.

Shhhh. Dont mention the 182s 0-60 time of 7 seconds.:devilish:

The reduced weight helps of course.

Great car but not worth owning in this country. Even more so with rising fuel costs.

Waste of time staying under 3000rpm. The manual is generic and even that states 3500rpm IIRC.

Its not paint!

Thats sad. I saw him at the Brands race a few weeks back. His nickname was lightweight. He had no chance of winning and was always last, he just did it for fun.

Ill do them cheaper than Renault if anyone wants them.

I dont understand why people put these hideous kits on their cars. They slow the car down, increase fuel consumption and look ridiculous.

Seems very odd that it caught fire even though it had not been used for two days.

The dealer at Romford might have some.

Just how often do you have the steering on full lock? I dont know why people even complain about this. I dont think Ive ever had to apply full lock on my Cup so I dont even know if I have this problem.

Yep, you need Wonder Wheels. That Halfords crap is no better than washing up liquid.

2inch probably.

They come of easily with a heat gun.

Youll jack the car up on a motorway and walk 60 miles to the nearest Kwik Fit

What an idiot. If hed stopped and given you his details he wouldnt be facing a conviction now. Looks like its just the door so thatll be no problem to fix.

No it isnt. You are blocking the view of other traffic and putting pedestrians in danger.

I remember a guy with a Cup on here who said he had a problem with the car darting about all over the place. Mine is fine, but you do have to keep two hands on the wheel. I imagine it could catch you out badly if you hit a bump mid-bend.

I wouldnt pay 27k for one, I think it should be more like £24k. I imagine all the EVO and Scooby owners are crapping themselves over the latest round of petrol increases.

What was this ride and drive and why wasnt I invited?

They showed a clip of the forthcoming stuff for the new series and it included the Racing Blue 182 with stripes going round a corner on 3 wheels.

You can if you want. But if I see it parked up anywhere Ill rip them off.:devilish:

The Cup isnt really raw and stripped out anyway.

Delays are common.

ABS doesnt work properly in the snow anyway. Plus we hardly get much snow nowadays. I havent had a problem with the brakes, but they do lock easily. The car is just itching to get on a track. I always feel like Im in a little race car whenever I find a nice smooth bit of Tarmac.
