Ouch!!! ........£450 for a cambelt change is starting to look reasonable!!!

Hill Power do a stage 1 kit for a cup inc. induction kit and group N ECU. Looks good on the website, but no prices.

I paid my deposit at the beginning of august and mines due 26th Nov, so about the same wait. Its really getting on my tits, especially as the car Im using at the mo as a run about is f**ked!!! AAAAGGGHHHHHH!!!!

Lucky buggars. 27th Nov for my 172.

That new megane is a real grower. I hated it when it first came out but the more I see them about the more I like them. Wouldnt have even considered them until now, and when the time comes for me to get rid of the clio, they will definitely be an option. (a renaultsport one, of course)

Not far from the truth. Test you battery @ tickover and then test with lights, heaters, blower on etc and if you alternator is knackered the voltage will drop considerably.

Would have loved a MkII 172 in the cup blue. The best of both worlds IMHO.

Me too mate. Mines 27th November (I hope). Just in time for the dirty, icy , salty, sh*tty roads. Still cant wait though.

I sent two e-mails this week, and did not receive a reply. I rang up again earlier and got through to someone else ( not Janice ). He flaffed about for a bit ( " I dont usually work on delivery updates" he said) and eventually told me that my car is expected to be with the dealer on the 24th...

I ordered mine from New-car-discount.com and was originally told that delivery would be around mid october. As mid October is nearly upon us, I sent janice a couple of e-mails, without reply. So I have just rung them up......... and there was no answer.....it just rang out....... gulp. WTF...

I havent seen one cup on the road. But then again I very rarely travel far. The only one Ive seen was parked in my work carpark. However, there are FOUR saxos in my road alone!!! three VTRubbish and one VTsh*te. Like dog sh*t I tell thee, fookin everywhere!!!

Same as.... Glad its not just me. Look at the time of this post. Its a sunday ffs..... and Im at work!! Ive no life, but then again I have no debt either.... cant have it all I spose.

Welcome mate. ummm. Ive paid £12500 for my 172 ( not been delivered yet), but got no sat nav. Doesnt really matter though. It will be worth it when you get it!!!

Cant fault ya, chief. Cracking motor and a bargain for a shade under 3k!!!

Specific gravity of Petrol (vehicle) = 0.737 ( pure water is 1) therefore 50 litres of petrol ( @ 60F ) = 36.85 Kg

Agree mate. My mate (or rather his missus), has got a brand new MG ZR in silver. Looks quite nice, but the first comment anybody made about it was " oh no, not a rover"!!!

Maybe so, but the VTS just simply doesnt have the same kudos as the Cup. Get one, you know it makes sense!!!

FAO Ralphy_172 http://www.new-car-discount.comwww.new-car-discount.com sell 172s for £12500 OTR. Uk cars etc etc. Get a 172 if comfort(equipment levels) and safety are priorities. If your priorities are cost and performance then it has to be a Cup. Plus the Cups come in the nicest colour...

Did I see your car at the BTCC @ Oulton Park last week? Or was I dreaming?

My missuss 03 1.2 16v Dyna. had had slight rumble at tickover since new ( it can be felt through the seats) its now got 3000 miles on and still does it but no other faults touch wood. I feel the squeaky/rattley (sp?) sunroof is not far away though, as having operated it a few times, its not...

So far So good. And they recieved good reviews from the press.

Ive not heard owt, but they are still very new i.e. not been about long enough for the usual renault issues to rear their ugly head!!!! Ive driven a 2.0ltr, and it seemed to be pretty well put together but as i said its still early days for them really.

Is there likely to be much traffic?? Im only coming from chester, but dont know the area/circuit very well.
