[lewisniven]

Yoz is having it for a customer, i think im gonna cry when i see it being taken away.

Just been to look at a Ph1 Flame red 172, just to tie me over till i decide what im having next (trophy wud be nice).

I feel quite depressed, lol. Im so attached to my cup.

 

[simonwwfc]

shame fella you will miss it what are you going to get in the future ?

 

[Gaz_]

you will miss it, i miss mine

 

[janelle]

why did you sell it?

 

[lewisniven]

janelle, it needs a gearbox rebuild, and a few other bits, and i was offered a price price so ive got shot of it to save the hassle.

really want a trophy next.

 

[janelle]

I want a 182 cup liquid yellow. can't wait to get one, gotta save some money first.

Absolutely love the yellow colour

 

[lewisniven]

TBH i want a trophy too but like I said liquid yellow is gorgeous - if the trophy came in yellow it'd be perfect!!!

yeah ff - same isn't it? I thought ff was the 182 cup with all the extras??

 

[brisa4984]

[tommyboy]

It used to be like this

182 with silver alloys, no options was just a 182

A 182 cup packed was called full fat as it had ALL the extras, cup packs etc. For some reason this has now changed through slack use.

Models:
182 FF
182 FF + Cup Suspension pack
182 FF + Cup Spoiler Pack
182 FF + Both the above
182 Cup

 

[janelle]

Thanks Gumby that helps. So i guess there's no sure thing as a cup ff???
Damn!!! I want the cup in liquid yellow - but that's not possible???

 

[Gumby]

An "182 FF" with both cup packs is effectively the top of the line one. A "182 cup" means that you get the "better" suspension at the expense of xenon's, climate control and other creature comforts

To see which colours are available in which model see Fubar's guide here

but a 182 isn't full fat as it doesn't have all the options. Slack use of the term through the forum over the years. Slang if you like. Back in the day etc etc

:S

cuz my cup needs a full gearbox rebuild, and a service, and i cant be arsed with the hassle, and i dont have £1000 cash lying about just yet, so its easier to just sell it for market value minus the cost of the repair, ive not lost much really.

 

[janelle]

Thanks Gumby that's really helpful. - still think I'll stick with the yellow

True, but imagine trying to explain that everytime someone asks

 

[lewisniven]

lol - it's a good idea though

 

[Gaz_]

lol!

 

[Ian_182]

Ive never really liked the yellow

With the '182 FF with cup packs' and you get all the 'creature comforts' along with the 'better' cup suspension.

Good choice.

If you need any info, just ask

 

[kully]

natural upgrade from the cup tbh unless you go for a vee

 

[lewisniven]

cant go for a vee, i need a boot unfortunately, and a reasonable mpg.

going to look at the fame red ph-quick again tonight, the guy let slip that he was super desperate to be rid of it so i rekon i can swing a good deal on it.

that shud keep me tied over till i can find a gd trophy.

 

[MillerLight]

im sorry to hear you are selling. it was a really cool car.

[lewisniven]

[Leeshez]

Oh well onwards and up wards.
