Beat 185 bhp and you've done better than me LOL! Having said that since I moved to super unleaded and have given it a few trackdays and 16k miles since i got it and the engine really seems to have come alive.
Low 6s seems optimistic though?
8 years on a cambelt that's meant to be changed at 5?!
Makes me cringe thinking about driving that!
What a joker to advertise that as FSH, then tells you to jog on at the thought of allowing £500 for the work.
Sadly, he will end up selling it at that price to someone who's similarly clueless.
If it's 51-plate it's almost guaranteed to not be a Cup...I don't think they started being registered until 03 (although there may be the odd 52-plate Cup out there).
Doesn't sound like a Cup. Lots of insurance companies get them mixed up.
What parts are you after? Almost all parts except what's already been mentioned above are identical for both models.
What reg is it?
As yours has had colour and interior changes, the easiest way to tell is brake hard. If ABS kicks in = non-Cup, if you lock and slide = Cup.
