172+172cup

[Mitchy]

Just a quick question to you clio lads,

Can you physically tell the differnce between a 172 and the 172cup??

funnily enough the cup has a cup badge on the side pillar..

The Cup was originally only in Blue, but can now be purchased in silver. The cup has different alloys and sits 2mm lower than the 172 (although I doubt you would notice that)

IIRC the Cup has no rear headrests and its a one peice rear seat not a 3/4 split rear seats like the 172, and the interior is just cloth, not half leather/alcantara and the Cup has a lower front splitter (although a lot of em seemed to come without it)

Cup differences externally:


16" Speedline Turini alloys,
Mondial blue paint (silver now an option, but rare),
Front splitter under bumper,
Larger rear spoiler,
"Cup172" badges on door pillars,
Lower suspension (only slightly),
Wider track ,

Youd know one if you saw one...
