reno overfilled my oil by about 20mm on the dip stick. Anyone know if this would have caused problems. My tickover has been a bit lumpy ever since (didnt notice for 1 week). Blocked breather do cause irratic tickover if I remember right, dont they ?

Dont the silver door pillar badges blend in a bit too much ?

If it aint Blue it aint a real Cup ! simple as that. If you ABS, Aircon, leather seats or even any one of those what you have is:- 1) an overweight Cup. or, 2) a second rate 172 As for value, is a willy 1 worth more than a 2 ? I rest my case. A real Cup is Blue !

I think Reno lit says 6.8 secs but most road test reports are 6.5 secs

Im from Portsmouth - Cup with Green Air filter. (Ktec Zorst soon I hope)

Not really, it just means you have less to tan on the rest of your body !

Best take the GF / wife out the boot from the last time she moaned about you ragging it up the road.

I got quoted £75 for a 1" scape on the rim and walked away. They did a similar one 3 months before for £35 but denied they would ever have done it for that price. Wierdos !

mine had 7 miles on it too

OH NO !!!!!!! someone has nicked my spare wheel !! LOL!

Im 38 !

Tracking is not the same on the cup

at least I can get a nice tan on my right arm. You lilly white Aircon brigade have to keep your windows shut if you want it to work properly ! LOL

I need tyres on my Cup soon and cant find anyone to supply the contis in the right size. Anyone on here found a source ?

I love it when someone has a good rant.....LOL !

WHY ?......... Are you mad ?

Scudetto: I cant deny that, it is a little warm. But at least you can drive faster in a Cup to cool down !

Octavia My friend had a dog called Porsche

Dont forget not only is the Cup:- 89Kgs lighter = Faster Lower = Faster (Less drag) Uprated front suspension = Faster (better tranfer of power to front wheels) No aircon = Faster (remember even switched off it is still being rotated) Oh really, stop me, Ill split my sides laughing o.1...

Quote, tumbleweed:- Thank the lord for my 172...outside today was 28oc...in traffic I had the aircon cooling me down nicely at 16oc...the interior felt like ice....although the Cup is .2 faster to 60...any cup owners would of been baking in the traffic jam i was in !!!....172s are cool lol...

mine only clunks going into 5th, other gears are sweet. Judder on acceleration is from the engine mount under the Battery. Although Reno deny they have ever had the fault reported they tightened mine up and it is much better know. Only have the ocassional judder if I pull away hard with it...

usually catches me out if it is not quite warmed up, when it cuts in early

watch out for bent jacking points !!!

Oh Bum !!!!! That means I will have to pay again. I went to snetterton a couple of months ago. Very good day hope you lot enjoy it. May go again, if I do could see you up there.

what the Cup does have though is better performance and handling.... End of story. LOL !!!!

Ive done 8K and I recon I will be lucky if I see the other side of 10K

Gear change light: is in the bottom right hand corner of the instrument panel, its green and comes on as a test light when you switch the ignition on. Pedals: work very well and quick gear changes can be easily acheived. (tip try not to dip the clutch as you may get the odd crunch, get into...
