Tell me about it, Andrew at your place has been rung and im comin down your place next week for some decent service! Ringing him back tomorrow to get booked in. See ya then!
Just got back from Stealers, Cup was in for a 36k service and they aint done the aux belt. Useless... Just phoned them and there saying it isn't covered in 36k service and is an extra they want another 300quid. Absolutely livid!
I bought the cup before they came out, but to be honest probably, even tho (i know im biased) the cup is the original and i dont think the trophy is that much better? The only thing against cup's compared to trophy's etc is there older IMO?
Sorry i disagree, i own a 172 cup and chose it over any other varient because its raw and feels like its made for one thing... and thats what i wanted. Each to there own and all that, everyones different thats why this argument will never be solved. But it had nothing to do with finances at all...
i choose tesco so i could transfer my bike no claims over, and they wouldn't insure me at all until i turned 21 even then it were 900with no claims protection.(Bought my cup 3 weeks before my 21st birthday) guted had to leave it sat on the drive. And i had sold my bike and car to pay for it. Was...

Heard that the old ones rattled alot just wondered if these are better? Cheers
i found the 197 a let down as well after my 172 cup, not to mention the £4500 trade in they offered me for an immaculatre 32k cup hpi clear. W***ers
Meggy r26 good choice though!
Have you also considered a Lotus elise 111R, the Toyota 1.8 VVT 190bhp engine.
Drove one a couple of times absolutely supurb. Needs reving much like the 172 but once on cam it is blisteringly quick. id have one if i could justify the insurance (i am only 22 tho)
Also wouldn't you rather...

I had to change passenger side as My mrs caught it with stilletoe boots and ripped straight through it, had to order one from renault iirc it was around £57 well easy to fit old one just pulls off and new one presses around the chassis.

And i was longing after a 197 cup racer for the road?
i always thought if the wheels stick out further than the wheel arch it wont pass MOT? Thats why them suzuki jeeps have massive arches stuck on when they put massive wheels on? Sure its the law over here?
