That's a 197 Cup.

Unpainted side strips.

Think you can spec the seat covers on any 197/200 tbh, but imo I'd say that was a cup with extras as it has the non-colour coded rubbing strips and no B pillar cover.Have seen nimbus' in lux trim before, but the lux is the ff equivalent isn't it?

chris... what do you think??

 

[Christopher]

197 Cup with the optional leather trim. It's got the Cup dash too.

Seems a fair price considering the low miles. I'd have to change those tyres ASAP though. lol.

 

[Naith]

great price that.

I'd have to change those tyres ASAP though. lol.

Wow.

 

[Christopher]

Yup. LOL.

 

[paul]

why o why cheap tyres

 

[Christopher]

Standard dealer procedure. :dapprove:

 

[Munson]

Don't see the problem with the tyres. Just drive to the conditions.

^ This.

Your not exactly going to slide off the road if you drive the car normally - even with a spirited drive on a good day!

 

[Knuckles]

It's got the Cup dash too.

whats the difference between the cup and standard dash?

 

[Munson]

Cup dash is hard plastic.

 

[Knuckles]

how can you tell from the pic? or is it obvious? im gonna search autotrader to compare...brb

nope, couldn't tell

 

[Christopher]

You can definitely tell once you've seen them side by side.

The climate/radio panel is unfinished black plastic. On the FF it's coloured, gloss or carbon effect.

 

[Knuckles]

aah, i was looking for the wrong thing... thanks

Full throttle on ice?

When I got my 172 they replaced a shaky-looking conti on the front with some budget monstrosity, but left the other borderline conti in place.

I think that budget thing is still my spare

 

[Munson]

Yeah just feather the throttle.
