^^^ Yeah.. esp when they asked if my Ph1 was a Cup :rolleyes: haha..

My bad.. I assumed both came lacking and where different groups.. Remember when I rang my insurance for a quote on my Ph1 they asked if it was a cup (yes odd I know) women said the cup would be more due to it being higher risk.. Ignore my previous post as its bullsh!t :o

@Caput.. Is your car is listed as a Cup on the V5? You should ring your insurance and let them know it isn't.. Cups are considerably more to insure because of the lack ABS etc, obviously making it a higher risk car (not that they really are tbh) so this should lower your premium..

Yeah that's the ones.. Micro sATA I think there called? Link to picture: http://www.comark-elec.com/ProductPicture-china/th/SATA-cable-Micro-SATA-7-9-Pin-cable-CMK-SA16M-424-0.jpg

The interface is a sATA connection.. not to sure on the power mind :S Edit: Which laptop this from?

I would totally agree.. Deffo a mechanic job if you don't have the correct tools etc..

http://www.k-tecracing.com/catalogue.asp?app=Clio%20172/Cup/182&category=Transmission 3 on here if that helps? Fitting is a different thing mind.. I couldn't tell you that.. From K-Tec Site:

Lol thanks Jamie, does help to read sometimes.. Done a HPI on the car? Probably the best way to start....

I'm sure Jamie was just being 'sarcastic' :cool:

Haha.. Good idea.. Though my car is a daily runner for me, would have to drive with the boot open for a few days.. or perhaps a sprayers mask! :rolleyes:

Any pics? Welcome to the club.. Where you located?

Re: My new 172 cup A Silver Cup! Noo... I thought these things where a myth :rasp: That is a stunning motor mate!

Me again :rasp: Yeah the centre console trim is the same colour, but is a pain in the @rse to remove.. need to strip the top half of the dash.. but I left mine as it wasn't in bad nick.. Just a heads up ;)

Welcome to the club! I'm from Dartford, well Crayford actually, slightly less chavtastic.. but not by much lol :rasp: Lovely car btw!

Good luck to you mate, thats great news, I am sure that has saved you an arm and a leg haha.. Hope the car is well soon!

Didn't happen to get any injuries from this incident did you? I hit a lamppost back in 05 after some idiot in a van pulled out on me.. I got whiplash and a sprained wrist.. ended up getting £5k.. As advised, if you have legal cover you really should pursue the claim.. Nothing to loose what so...

Thought a clean may have been nice! But seriously, that I feel is wayy over priced! I would expect to perhaps pay around £2400.. I am no expert what so ever in car values, but I wouldn't give that price a second thought!

Looks like the Ph1 are winning this battle :rasp: End of the day, it is entirely your choice.. this is just a little input from each side. IMO, a car is a car, from A to B with a bit of fun all cars from the ph1 to the cup are perfect for the job. Good luck with the purchase.. Don't forget of...

Yeah I have a place in mind, my mate had his OZ 15's done there.. Roll on pay day!

Its a reasonable consideration, I went from a top spec Pug 307 with every luxury available to the Clio with well.. A/C and PAS, haha. oh and lekky windows and mirrors of course :rasp: Driving experience was worth the sacrifice tbh though.. Like i said though, it is more personal preference...

No probs.. All the mod cons.. A/C, Xenons, Auto lights wipers etc, chassis is stiffer and so is the suspension, better driving experience all round

Ignore the tacky steering wheel.. this is alll so common!

This is the Ph1 Ph2 Interior

I think the Ph1 and the Ph2 have the same seats? Dash and that are different mind.. I shall have a look see.. otherwise I know someone will upload in a min

Ph1 FTW!... The Ph2 is drive by wire, (electronic throttle etc) causes lag (how much is uncertain, but nothing terrible!) Ph1 is direct cable.. pedal to throttle. no lag just pure power.. hence the Ph1 nickname of Ph-Quick Its a personal opinion mind, people do prefer the newer Ph2 because it...

Cable ties FTL! haha.. People are bidding? :S

See your thread earlier mate.. your wheels look mint!

If only you wasn't located in Birmingham :rasp: Heard nothing but praise about you man.. We need people like you down south!

Appreciate it mate if you can.. many thanks!

Yeah I see your thread about having them fitted, look smart, mine are in need of a clean up, but can't be arsed at the moment! I think I may know the one you are on about.. My manger at work mentioned a place in Sidcup, apparently the owner use to have the fastest Ren 5 in the UK? Same guys...
