Isn’t it great knowing that you got the best car out of the bunch?

It puts a smiley on my face every time I think about it :)

Best wishes

I wouldn't have sold mine for a 182Cup if this was true ;)
 
182 cup is the best IMO

The fact that the cup doesnt have abs especially in a country where 3/4 of the time its damp or wet scares the s**t outa me. Plus its only on track where the cup really takes advantage.

Plus if you ever come to sell it, its going to be tough. when buying a second hand most people want the most for their money and the number of cups being priced more than FF 172s is crazy despite being cheaper new.

totally my opinon tho ;)

everyone moans about the build quality, but IMO, these cars are great, value for money performance, easy to work on, bumpers, interior trim etc all easy to remove / work on.

hmmm..My uncle had an E55 AMG merc...no end of niggly probs...now Audi A8 4.7....boot keeps randomly unlocking it self amongst other things...you can get good and bad motors no matter what you pay....my cup has gone through more warrenty than the car is actually worth (no exageration), rattles are all over the place but I still love it after nearly 3 years...rattles?! just put my foot down then I can hear them! lol

Basically, cups are the pick of the bunch, top of the tree etc etc etc,

i think the trophy is the best in terms of performance, handling and fun

Heres a thought, with no equipment how are they always going wrong?

Ahhh, but when you throw cost into the equation (sp?) then all becomes clear :0

(i hope its obvious all this is 'tongue in cheek')
 
i've had my cup for 2 years, 3 weeks, 2 days and 4 hrs and i wouldn't swap it for a ferrari maybe a Mclaren F1 but the rest you can keep as for the abs,yad di yad who needs it not if your a proper driver!!!

Mate thats crazy...

Think for a sec.. its wet.. ure driving at 25mph (if ure a good driver.. ha) through a residential street with cars parked both sides.. and a kid jumps out...Uill stop in less distance with the abs..

Theres so many occasions where abs is needed.

Plus everyone thinks their drivin is good to an extent... i trust my self with a non abs car. i dont trust other drivers.. and idiots on the road where their careless driving leads u to breakin hard..
