He wants to sell his motorbike which is worth 6k and I was trying to tell him how he could buy a decent cup and have shed loads of change. He's not game though :( I will keep on though. If I was to hit him with a wooden spoon though he would get the spoon and ram it up my arse :(

Still trying to convince my dad to buy a cup for a track toy. :( no joy yet though.

Fair point, I would like one myself to be honest.

I think the noise of it whilst it's idling at lights would give it away. Wonder what mpg figures it gives. Joke.

Sky insurance. I will have to try them once renewal is up in August. I just stuck with admiral because I was halfway through policy and I didn't want to lose no claims. A trophy? Really? I would say a 172 cup. Or like you say. A phase 1. Gotta love the front bumpers on them ;) Why do you...

It really wouldn't work mate. Honestly. I could see where your coming from. But it wouldn't work. The spoiler would also catch on aerial and perhaps catch on roof when opening

Richmond Rd Wolverhampton West Midlands WV10 6TA United Kingdom It's basically off the Stafford road just after junction 2

Ye I'm sure that will be fine for me and Matt. It's just big enough for 2 in that layby. So I would suggest meet off junction 2 at the mosely pub or something? Therefore Tom and others can all wait as well. Sound alright? I know it's not a roll off slip road roll back on job but it's near...

Ye we could meet off a motorway junction somewhere. Have a think and I'm there ;) as long as I'm not going backwards away from the destination

It's got to be cup Tom. Get yourself one of them, strip it down, and track it. :D

Fabia splitter deffo. It's apparently dead easy to fit and cut down. Plus it's flexible. And around 12 quid.

Go with admiral?

No fcuking way! I never knew you had that ordeal with your car. Just read your thread. b******s. I know it's poop but in time things will be ok for ya. As in cheap insurance etc. it's so unfair how your insurance goes up extortionately. Sorry that it's totally off topic of a 172 cup. But I...

No way. I thought me paying 205 pound a month until August was bad. That's only cus I added it into old policy. Best to wait though. That's what I had to do. It certainly pays off

Try it then. Get some pictures up. I can't see it working personally but would like to see it done. Which spoiler do you own? Cup or standard?

I understand now. It wouldn't work on a clip though. As the underside of spoiler is designed to sit on boot lid. Otherwise you would see all sorts, like edge of boot glass and the black edge it sits on behind that.

There's me, mharvey and Tom c from wolves area. Where about are you from?

Ah I see. That's crazy. Road legal too. :/

What was that flash of light at end of video? And how loud is that!!!!

That looks mental. Wonder what it will actually go for. Would love a go in that too. Some one out there is going to buy that and have some serious fun in it.

I couldn't see difference?

I would go for anthracite or a graphite sort of colour. Tidy engine bay though. ;) Good job.

Looks great that does. Anthracite 2118's are the best. On my wish list. One day maybe :(

We've gotta sort a convoy out too I'm sure. Plenty of time for that ye don? And yes these butties will be nice. ;)

Just go to a scrap yard. One at bilston with a weigh bridge Tom. Ask them nicely and I'm sure they will let you on.

I also find seating position in 197's to be high up? Thats how I felt anyway. A stripped out cup round a track is epic I think

^^^^ got to agree. When I test drove a 197 before, don't get me wrong it was good but It didn't feel as great as a 1*2. I love the looks of 197's and 200's but I just think the 1*2's are great cars.

Good chart though Tom. I would get a 172 cup if you can deffo. Strip it out etc. any chance you could keep the 197 too?

Ye I will try that. Cheers for responses.

Ah yes. Totally forgot about halfords. Bet they will rob me though :(
