Re: How much is my 172 Cup worth? Thanks all. It has fresh belts so will stick it on and see what happens. Jim

How much is my 172 Cup worth? Hi all, I am selling my 172 Cup (Mondial Blue) and am looking for some ball park figures to get a decent understanding of the value. - It is a 53 plate - Has done 65k - Decent history with lots of receipts for work carried out - Never been tracked - It has a...

Well i'll have to stick an ad on and see what happens I guess. Thanks for the advice..

OK thank you. I think that may be the only way. It's just frustrating that is all. Just have to prepare for the fact that I won't get true market value for it. J

That really helps. Thanks! Any sensible advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

I am in the process of selling my Cup, and have just realised that my service history book did not come back after it's last service. This creates a huge problem as you can imagine. I have spoken to Renault UK Customer Services, they were NO help whatsoever. The dealer I got the work done...

Guys, My back box has decided to fall off and I am in need of a new one. Only problem is that I am getting married next year, so money is VERY tight and I cannot go mad and get a brand new one right now. Does anyone have a spare/used backbox that you would consider selling to me? It's for...

Picked it up from SMC Renault in Weybridge this morning (who were very helpful by the way!) and they have replaced the 'Oxygen Flow Sensor' or something or other. Apparently it controls the fuel/air mix and they had to re programme everything too. Seems to be ok now I think..! Just praying...

Thanks guys. The car doesn't idle very smoothly, it is quite lumpy. it's going into Renault Weybridge on Friday to get checked over. Jim

Help..! Electrical fault light in the centre of the dash, small engine light in the bottom right of the dash, engine "safety mode" cutting in, no power to engine so cannot accelerate, car jolting forward at low speed. Renault say that they did a diagnostic check, reset all of the faults...

Crooked Billet roundabout Staines at about 8pm last night - looked soooo good.

I was 3 cars behind..!

Having just re-mortgaged my house, I am not in the position to go and spend £450+ on some coilovers, but I have heard good things about the Eibach's. £150 from K-Tec, 30mm drop all round. I would like to see what they look like if anyone has them! Cheers..

Eagle F1's all day long. Tried Yokohama's and couldn't get them to work (was expecting a lot but they delivered little..), the original Conti's are not too bad, but the F1's are the tyre I find the best. The turn in is excellent (sharp and exactly where you point it) and they handle the wet very...

The lights have now gone out and it's running fine again! Flew all the way to work this morning no problems..! The induction system is loving the cooler mornings too! :)

Meeee. It's wearing badly and looks rubbish..!

All helpful guys, thanks. It's booked in to a dealer next week for a diagnostic test. Annoying though as I described the symptoms over the phone to the service guy and he sounded like he didn't have a clue!

Guys, the Electrical Fault light has started to come which inturn puts the Cup into some sort of safety mode not allowing it to accelerate as normal. I turn the car off, restart it, and within minutes it's happened again. Once this happens 3 times, a light on the right hand side of the dash...

Looked AWESOME! I was in the gleaming 172 Cup..

Am so close to buying a lowering springs - 30mm all round.. Just need to be sure they will look good and get some encouragement from some of you lot on the site! :eek: Any thoughts? Pic's of 172 Cup's with 30mm all round drop would be great too.. Thanks in advance..

Who in the Windsor/Staines area can refurb my Cup's Turinis for a reasonable price? Any help/contacts would be great..

Guys, is this removable for good? or is it a replacement job? It's annoying me on my Cup! Please advise, and thank you for your help!

Last week - left the M-way at Maidenhead junc!

Great, this is all helpful stuff guys. I bought the car at 17k miles. I drive it hard, but only within it's limits. I never totally abuse it. It now has 36k on it, hence the need for a service. I just love cross country blat's in it. Got Super Unleaded in it at the moment and it's really...

Just been out to lunch - a small orange engine symbol on the bottom right hand side of the dash has illuminated. It's due a service so think it might be time..?

Awesome. I am not looking to "Max Power" my Cup chaps. I am not into that stuff. Just want some tidy stealthy mods to optimise the performance. Jim

Thanks guys. Cheap, hmm.. not sure really? Remap - what gains in BHP etc? Man Utd fan - I am in the Stretford End on Sunday!

I am new to all this forum chat stuff, so bear with me guys.. All help is much appreciated! I have a 172 Cup - LOVE IT! Owned an Alfa 147 GTA and a standard 172 previously. Alfa was mega, but very nose heavy (255bhp V6 over the front wheels!). The Cup would eat it for breakfast through...
