yeah going to doctors tomoz! its really stiff.

 

[Ollie82.]

I thought another had gone.....i felt a disturbance in the force.

I see none of the "oooh its Cup killing season" brigade have chirped up...they have no "pro ABS" ammo when its a Cup killed by rear ender.

LOL!

ahhhh but the car that rear ended him MUSN'T have had ABS, it stops ALL collisions ever. Must have been either a 1970's escort or a Cup.

 

[matty J]

yeah, got smashed up the rear on way home today! all rear all crumpled in oh well! anyone got any cups for sale?

dont suppose you selling the third brake light??
ive been after one for ages

 

[Ollie82.]

Ahh yes of course!!! How silly of me to forget....there MUST have been another Cup written off then because it CAN'T have been a car with ABS!
They don't crash you know....

 

[Dave]

I bet insurance on Cups is MEGA.

 

[Gaz_]

Why?
So normal 172's don't get rear ended now? :S

.....must be the ABS at work

 

[philmots]

 

[Ollie82.]

I bet insurance on Cups is MEGA.

Oh yeah its terribly high. I even had to tell them i don't have a reverse gear as they would have heaped an extra 100 quid on my premium as Cups are prone to reversing into other cars at high speed...

 

[Gaz_]

What alot of people fail to realise is that there is alot more Mk2 172's out there compared to Cups. I will put good money on there being more 172's being wrote off per month than Cups.

 

[Ollie82.]

I've said this before! There aren't many Cups about because there was never alot of them to start with!

Oh I'm sorry. I guess I was wrong about Greenlight having to up the premiums because so many get written off! :rasp:

 

[Gaz_]

obvious aint it!?

 

[kully]

pmsl ....getting defensive aren't we .......hehehe the best thing is it wasn't even his fault

 

[Phill1978]

I've said this before! There aren't many Cups about because there was never alot of them to start with!

but also.. many have been slid off roads in winter.

so ABS works on ice on does it?

bloody hell its good this ABS technology lark, apparently it even stops cars running into the back of you!!!!

......and here's me thinking it just allows you to steer whilst hard braking without locking a wheel. Silly me.

Cups dont slide off the road in winter, or crash due to no ABS, its to do with the DRIVER being a tool, and driving too fast for the conditions. ABS will not save you on ice if your going too fast. Ever.

 

[Ollie82.]

Yawn...you can fish away mate, im not biting. :rasp:

 

[172cupwizard]
