Hi, I joined not o long ago and have now started a proper search for a 172 cup. I was just wondering if anyone knew any 172 cups for sale. All specs,etc considered but I'm not after anything that's caged. Does anyone know of anything around other than whats on here, e bay or gumtree, autotrader...
I only seem to see ones for sale in the north of england which is miles from me.
This one is much closer, but what's with the air con? Am I right in thinking it was a fairly expensive option on a 172 cup? Also, the rust...if its gone infront of teh rear arch is it likely gone elsewhere...
Hi Bill
You raise a good point, there could be a long list of crap on it to sort out. Plus it was odd as it was advertised as one lady owner but being sold by a bloke and appeared to be in some sort of industrial estate type place....but who knows! The mot list was weeping shocks, front ball...
Hi.thanks all. I guess you cant go wrong at that price. Looks like it could be nice again for a reasonable amount of work and still low-ish miles. cheers. Will
dunno, havent contacted him as its a hell of a long way away from me! I hadnt noticed the plate, but youre right! he's blanked them all out apart from the one shot from the back! Why do people blank out plates in adverts? seems like a waste of time.
Hi, I spotted this 172 cup for sale. Its exactly teh sort of thing that Id like to buy (but why cant i find one nearer london:) anyway, just wondering if it belongs to a member of this forum or if anyone was a past owner,etc? cheers. Will...
Not sure whats going on here, but the car I linked to above, is now on e bay and is now a lot closer to where I live...must go and have a look!
Anyone here know it?

Just a nice road car for me. I think I got my trackday stuff out of my system a few years ago to be honest. Ferrying kids about seems to mean I have no time to do that sort of thing nowadays anyway! I've lots of time for spannering,etc and to be honest, I find that I enjoy that nowadays as much...
Sounds simple!!:) Really keen to get my hands on a car now. Doesnt have to be pretty, just mechanically sound with as little rust as possible! cheers. Will
Thanks Chris. I've started having agood look around and doing a lot of reading to get a feel for the cars. I like to do alot of spannering myself, but so far mostly on cars at least 30 yrs older than a 172 cup, so mucking about with sensors and ecu s,etc is totally new to me! A car that you can...
Hi from a new member. I’m looking for a 172 cup as a fun car. Have had various other cars over the years but have realised that a light, responsive car without breaking the bank is where the fun is for me. Cheers. Will
