172 question

[Mr_Shankly]

Which is the better performer. The 172 Sport or the Cup? Ive seen new 172 Sport models being sold on Autotrader.co.uk as low as £11,400!!! Gonna swap my 1.6 for one after Crimbo. Or should I wait for the 182??

Do you want toys or not?

 

[Mr_Shankly]

Eh?

 

[Tom]

oh jesus, equipment lad.

Do you want leather, air con etc...........

 

[telford_mike]

cos if you do, get a 172.

if you want to waaaaaaaiiiiiiiit a long time, order a 182,

and if you just want to go fast and save a few £££££££££, get a Cup.

 

[Mr_Shankly]

Thanks chaps. I think Ill go for the 172. Quite a few places have them around £12,000.

cup is faster(only by 0.4 of a second though),cheaper but no creature comforts

basically the cup is a car that relies on driver ability

which too many drives in this country do not have

the 172 has a few driver aids, which overall make it a safer car (i know driver ability still comes into things)

the 182 will only be a 172 cos the one 172 is realy a 162 get it uni chiped and it will be a 170 its up to you is the 182 the same weight i doubt..............

Get a mk1 172, has everything you need all the toys etc and is faster than the cup and mk2 172. Best of all it looks much better and is cheaper to buy. Gt it in the red colour of you can find one they look mint!
