Cant go wrong for that money.

You can say that about a Scooby STi aswell. The Cup has been engineered by performance experts. Its not just the pretty looking 172 that most 172 owners wish it was.

And what about the different suspension? Different wheels? Different brakes? The Cup is more than a 172 with bits removed. They should make a proper 182 Cup though.

Its not so much the fact that some dealers will take an import and some wont, its just the extra hassle that goes with it. I wouldnt want to be driving around in something I knew might be a nightmare to sell. I dont blame people for getting import 172s, (thought very seriously about it...

Yeah, you could probably drive that for a year and sell it for near what you paid for it. Good buy.

....another reason to avoid imports

Surely the big factor in these tests is how quickly you get off the line? Do they take the average of several runs or the best?

Can you get a decent MK2 diecast V6 yet? Theres a lot of Mk1 models.

I dont see the point in spending £200-300 on a car specific plate. Get something you can keep forever.

You bought the car without finding out what CC was first? Good choice though. Went out in mine today and had the CC on to cool me down. It could do with going a few degrees colder though I think. I dont think its going to be cold enough for me on really hot days.

Sounds like another future Cup write off;)

What are the chances of another limited edition 182?

Surely youve not done much mileage in it though? And you could have stuck with the cup at least until the summer? Did you P/Ex the Cup? Still waiting for a chance to use the air con on mine. And Ive only done 1100 miles.

I think they are quite easy to lock in a panic situation.

Of course the blue looks good, ITS CUP BLUE! Id like to have a word with the goon at Renault whose bright idea that was.

IIRC, you got your Cup just before me in December. Why on earth is your missus moaning about air con?

What about over the rear hatch?

ITS AN IMPORT!

Can clickcars seriously do a V6 for £22300?

Use a stepladder and dont push too hard.

I can supply 2" stripe for these, or a pre cut and spaced graphic.

What date are people going? Those Clio Cup racers are mad. 4.1secs 0-60!

Might aswell have just called it Mondial Blue. Bstards.

The Cooper S is apparently very good handling. I think they should have made the Cup a bit stiffer.

They are parasite scum and should be wiped out.

Yes, only the other day I had the climate control in my CUP warming me to a nice 24 degrees C. And Ill be blown if I can tell whether the side bolsters of my Same As 172 Seats (except slightly lower for better driving position) have leather on them or not when Im sitting in them.

Yeah, what a luxury Xenon lamps and ABS are. Cars are so uncomfortable without them.

Cup is 1011kg according to Evo. = 170.12

172 = 156 bhp/tonne CUP = 171 182 = 168 V6 = 182 V6mk1 = 175

Have any other cup owners tried your car?
