fitted very straight forwards, havent got round to fitting the cold air scoop yet still using the standard one...but im thinking of taking out a foglight and working it that way, but man it roars..such a hollow bark i cant stop driving my car now :) pick up a magnex system (twin 3.5") next...
does anyone have an opinion on these? they are fixed damping and height from 30-70 front 30-50 rear...can get them for £690 fitted from a local supplier.
why do these vary massively? is it cause people have no idea of their value? or is it cause they dont want to lose as much as they think they are going to.
heres 2 examples of mark 2 vees on autotrader at the moment..
May 2005 with 6k miles in illad blue..£19,900 ONO
2004 54 plate with 5k...
think they looked like turinis but cant be sure as i wa heading the opposite way down the motorway, looked very smart though, last night about 6 oclock
i wanted a mk1 v6, then i started liking the mk2s and they seem an all round better car..but i saw this pic of one in hong kong..and i slightly photoshopped it, colour, front bumper grille and wheels..and im in love!

who puts a mk2 vee on (that was just on for the last week from a proper...
ive found an 04 plate for sale with i.d leather and 5125 miles i was just wondering if this is the car that was recently bought by a lad off here? or is this another one?! and if so how many lunars were there with leather?!
:pwow, someone certainly has a pet hate for them, has anyone read it? ill copy it asap!
he does make one valid point though, they specced full beige taking the total to £32k and paid retail money for it, one year on, its worth approx £17k private, ouch! me thinks not a car to keep for one year!!
oh man, oh man, oh man...that car just stirs my soul! the noise, the attention, the styling, its utterly perfect, you can offically stuff subarus and evos from now on ill view them as jap boxes!
this car just makes you want to drive, gearbox was a bit notchy but fun!
cant wait to drive...
..£8500 trade in on my mint 2004 172 cup on a 53 plate V6 255 in silver...that seems very good price for a dealer to offer,
but im going to see an 03 plate mk1 in silver with 12k miles on friday..really have a soft spot for the mk1s
found a lunar grey (sexual colour, not to everyones taste) V6 255 on a 2005 (54) with 500 miles and I.D leather as well, which is a bonus, they have it up for £21995, what should i try and work em down to? and how much should i demand for my IMMACULATE 2004 172 cup which is totally std and done...
cars done 11300 miles now and booked it into benfields renault on weds morning for its 12k service, £145 didnt seem too bad, it also needs an engine mount its banging like a tw*t on hard accerlation.
not really bothered about them thrashing it or anything, it gets it most days from me anyways...
anthracite 182 wheels, lowered on coilovers..and slightly tinted windows!!!

used to have my saxo done in a gorgeous rage colour called bondi beach..it was a pale metallic blue (similar to racing blue) but with a gold flip through it..looked gorgeous..im getting ideas..mmmm
plus mondial blue is a tw*t to keep clean...
righty one of my good mates is parts manager at my local dealer..and says he can order me some 182 cup wheels for my 172 cup for £366 + vat (which i can claim back) seems a very keen price to me,
also was querying him about the recaros and said that id seen on here a few people had tried...
what the hell do i use on my cup rubstrips..whatever i seem to put on them they end up a white streaky mess and completely ruin my nice polished up car..stupid renault and their cost saving ideas :(
just bought one from my mate for £150, along with a full magnex and de-cat for £190, i take it is obviously a straight swap from his mk2 172 to my 172 cup?
does anyone run this set up and can i expect a nice throaty roar? is it worth getting a dastek or similar now?!
ok ive decided i want to do odd bits to the cup, does anyone have a piperX viper induction kit and is there any noise difference..i want to hear some induction roar..
thanks
black with full black..i really...really want this car! :(

my local cruise site..notice how after me and scutch picked up on it hes never replied again..also seems to know very little about "his" car ;)

kind of regret selling it..it was my total pride and joy..love my cup to bits but the lass that bought it is seriously wrecking it and i miss the attention, ive been sitting all morning planning what...
just wondering weather to go for a used v6 255 next year or get one of the last 182s with full options, try and get recaros with the full matching interior and in liquid yellow...
my head says the 182..new car, more chuckable...my heart says the vee
just wondering what kind of value is on an immaculate std 172 cup, its a feb 2004 (53 reg) with 9700 miles, not a chip, scuff or scratch on it anywhere
soo need a vee :(
