I edited my post....not sure it was now!

I love this car. Best car on here IMO

Steve, i've always meant to ask, what suspension is your wagon running on?

Asides from the white wheels (something im considering once its coilovered) the rest is plain garbage!

Coming back from football tonight, i came thru a favorite hard left bend of mine as per normal, only to be greeted with the Serv light coming on. No other lights, just that one. It then went out 15 secs later. Now i serviced it (oil and filter) about a week ago. Had a quick look under the car...

Ahh right...must have been another MFM182 lookalike. Funny, i had afternoon tea with the Edge.

Steve, were you up around Junction 10 of the M25 today? Spotted a black 182 on turinis heading onto the northbound A3 today...looked lower than standard but thats all i saw.

Munson slays yet another unworthy junior ranter....my god there is no escape from his all seeing opinionated eye.;)

Mine has cost me a fair bit in parts but most of the labour has been done by me so i've saved a packet. They aren't renowed for their build quality...hell they are infamous for it. Like anything Italian from the 80's/90's.

Definitely going for white when i get my turinis refurbed. Combined with the coilovers it should look mint.

Liking the central driving position. Is it running a standard shift or is it a sequential box?

Cracking link. Nice one!

And this...for the rarity factor. There is only ONE genuine one in the world.

Gotta have one of these as well

I'd have one of these tho...

Im with Roy on this one....i can't actually pick just one definitive car!

Outside the Colgate Palmolive building in the traffic. Looked pretty standard and had a Cliosport sticker in the back window. Reg was LV** OJN

So its still not as light as it should be then! On the flip side i hear the new Meggy is lighter than the old one....and i think its a rather handsome beast at that.

So the Cup is 30 odd kg's lighter than the standard 200 BUT how much does the 200 weigh compared to the 197 Cup?

I honestly adore my Cup, despite its annoying niggles and its pap build quality but i forgive it those as its truly rapid. In my honest opinion, pound for pound it will still pull the pants down of a 197 DESPITE all the arguments against.... BUT...if someone said to me tomorrow that i could...

Lets be honest, if we all were offered a 197 (not a standard one obviously....pap compared to a Cup packed one) over a 1*2, we'd no doubt go for the 197. In the real world we all enjoy what we can afford. For the money i think we all do pretty well. Fighting over tenths of a second is a bit...

Cue Seb stage right. Such a Hero...;)

I must say, i've been waiting for Seb to roll out the Big Guns in defence of the 197's honour....

Thus summing up the combined beauty and pure blockheadedness of Cliosport....surely, after all is said and done, it really doesn't matter?! It does make great forum reading tho....;).

Today, waiting to join the traffic coming out of Guildford towards Porsche AFN. Nice.....until i saw the godawful Lexarse lights on the back. Yuck!

Today, turning off Middleton Road in Guildford, just before the Colgate Palmolive building.

I was driving thru the Epsom/Banstead area last night. Well it ws actually about 1.30 am after the nightmare i had getting off the M23. I can defnitely say i've never seen anything like it. The A217 was just pure snow all the way to the M25. Surrey got absolutely dumped on.

Was there anyone from here out on the roads round about Epsom way last night? I left Brighton at 9pm....didn't get back to Guildford until 3.30am!! Had to divert as i couldn't get off the M23 at the M25.....then sat on the M23 with no fuel. Re-fueled and then had to fight my way to the A217...

Oh they definitely aren't gripping anywhere near as tenaciously as they could, but you know that feeling when it all just feels wrong? It just felt awful as soon as i started pushing on. Its never ever felt skittish on the rear end but it felt like a was driving a Williams...;)
