Not starting an argument, might be a common question, but what performance differences between a Cup 172 and a 182... are they evenly matched?

LOL - elephant didnt pay out when my mate crashed his evo 6 ... says it all really

Not sure what your getting at... mines 7 years old and is mechanically and structualy fine

LOL, the torsion bars on most peugeots and citroens really does make the handling awesome even in standard form Ive got a 106gti on a lowered torsion bar... and full bilstien setup with custom springs, and the handling is faultless, you can literally throw the car into most situations... its...

2 words torsion bar.

I saw 3 cups in newcastle within 1 hour once. :S

I was quoted 6-8 weeks from a dealer in Newcastle on a 182

Thanks for the info... yes the 182 is nice, I aint seen one yet in the flesh, not bothered about the Civic bein common, and yes equipment is low compared to 182... I like all the toys... hmmmm I am going to go have a scout round some garages

I still cant decide :(

hmmm, so its adding up to 15k quite quickly then, thing is CTRs still retail quite high even 3 year old ones are 12k trade

Ben, thanks for the replies... yes im getting the impression the Cupra handling is crap standard.... im not willing to spend money sorting that out, my 106GTi has already had £600 suspension stuck on it. Cupra is out the Window... besides my mate just bought one. I know the CTR wont handle...

SOOTY who uses this forum had a CTR with a forced air induction of some kind, and to date its one of the best sounding cars ive heard

Dont really want to modify it to be honest, just a bit of ICE, maybe a filter and backbox ... ive had loud exhausts for over 2 years now, im a little deaf! CTR is top at the moment, just had a quote for 1800FC ... plus its bigger which is what im after

im from killy Northumberland... 106GTi !

I want a car that handles nice, has power... looks the b****cks in standard form

I think the CTR is pushing it to be honest, but I dont mind going a bit on that as ive just had a pay rise

LOL

hmmm dont think im too keen on those to be honest

Bits of my problem are... I already have a car that runs low 15s and probably outhandles all of the above mentioned :S

LOL you see.... you all reply different cars ... now you can see my problem! :)

hi guys, wondering you can try and give me some NONE BIASED help with a decision... im looking to get rid of my 140+bhp 106GTi due to me wanting something which is a bit newer (had loads of mechanical grief lately) ... here are my options... CTR probably 2001-2002 182 brand new... either...

15.3 - 106GTi

14.6 in a 172 with a filter PMSL!

y not get a 172?

thats a good time mate... I beat you by virtually nothing... id call it squats... I ran with same fuel as well.... I reckon a 172 could do sub 15 with an amazing start

15.331 ooo, what did you get hehehe
