You mean clothing? Your dealer has brochures. It helps if youi like vivid yellow and blue though.

LOL yeah - Daughter number 1 has her driving test today. OMG I promised her a drive in the 172 if she passes :sick:

No thats the reflection of the highly polished stainless steel! http://homepages.tesco.net/~mmikee/zorst/zorst4.jpg

The colour formally known as red is nice. Black seems to be good if youre planning on doing a lot of bling bling mods like chrome wheels though.

This morning I got: Generic Viagra, Drive your woman wild, Prescription drugs online. but nothing about improving the handling on my car :cry:

Its the right thing.

That would be really cool - and the noise.................. mmmmmmm :cool:

I love it when that happens. My Mum got a Golf GTI when I was a kid - she was the coolest Mum in town!

Paddy. Magnex :D http://homepages.tesco.net/~mmikee/zorst/zorst5.jpg

LOL - Shed probably just stolen it and was off to ramraid the Post Office!

Thats awful, didnt realise premiums in NI were that bad :o So what would they want for a 172 then?

So are you any the wiser? No. You pays your money and takes your choice. Neither is better, it just depends on what you want.

Nah theres a Frontera on the offroad course I think.

No, unfortunately you cant, and it cant be fitted afterwards either.

Let me know how you get on - Im going on the 1st August :D

Cup is 85kg lighter (about 7%.) So its a smidge faster (0.1) to 60 - same top end. But theres no ABS, which is a pretty major limit of how hard you can push unless youre alone on the main runway at Heathrow airport, or a racing driver.

Yes, just before filling the boot with 200kg of ICE :D

As far as I know the Cup lacks the following: HID headlights Leather / Alcantra Upholstery Climate (though you can get it as an option on the Cup) ABS (!!!!) Traction Control & Cruise Control (on latest 172 models) and various other bits (including spare wheel!) that dont matter...

Depends whether you want those accessories or not. Cheap is always better if you dont need the extras.

Too much. You want a fully working car for £1450 even if its a bit tatty.

Just equipment. The Cup is a 172 for poor people. *ducks*

I had this - it was the gearbox mount thats under the battery. Just needed tightening.

Nope, Cup splitter = +20bhp and 0.5 faster over the 1/4 mile :p

Depends entirely who you buy from. If you can speak to the previous owner, or better still meet him / her, you can make a judgement about the sort of life that the car might have had. Buying from a dealer youre pretty much blind, and yes the muppets at the dealer may well have had a bit of fun...

Make sure you have a good look before you buy - many of them (mine included) have been used for smoothing off kerbs.

Seen em on here for around £300.

If its the same items on the schedule as the 12k service then it sounds a wee bit steep, although prices do vary in different parts of the country. Make sure you know what youre getting for your money, and if the service jobs are the same for the 12k and 24k services, make sure you pay whatever...

Did they say why its more than the 12,000 service?
