    High mileage 172 cup

    Lambo

    Whilst on the M25 on saturday I saw a Lambo Murcielago roadster, looked sweet and sounded the absolute nuts. Shortly after that an exige passes and gives me the nod followed by a 550 maranello which also sounded sweet as. All within half a mile...one day.

    Those rubber bits...

    ...on the steering wheel on the sport models. The right hand one on mine is starting to come off, would this be a warranty job or would Renault say wear and tear? Im guessing its a whole new steering aswell?!?!?! How much, anyone know?

    I think Leos cup is spot on. Took these pics at the Brands trackday, such a shame he had problems and I couldnt go out in it with him. If I had the cash, this is how Id have my cup...stunning. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y62/chris172cup/Leo01.jpg...
