My new silver 172 Cup - hopped on the bandwagon!



  BMW E46 330i Touring
Picked it up yesterday, am so glad to be back in a Clio!

Was hoping to give it a good clean today, it certainly needs attacking with the clay, but the weather didn't allow. So a quick wash will suffice until next weekend!

Cheers dudes, no plans really as I want to keep as standard as possible seeing as it's got the rarity factor. A few chips and nicks that I'll tidy up and a little dent that needs removing but no changes.

My plate will go on, and I may fit some silvervisions!

172 Cups. For men.

Iceburg Silver 172 Cups. For Mens men. None of this girly blue colour.

Good work Ads. ;)

Lol, cheers Dan. Is it manly to look forward to a nice day so I can spend hours pampering it!?! Of course I will also show it some p**n, let it drink beer and vandalise some bus shelters...

^Yay! Nice dude. So, how many silver Cups do we have on here then? There's been 3 turn up in about 2 weeks I think! Can't be only 3 surely?
 
  BMW E46 330i Touring
Nah, mine's a real Cup ;) Although I wouldn't have turned it away if it did have CC!

The ph2 172's are all Iceberg B16 DOE, ph1 172's and the 182's are Titanium.

Cheers guys.

Very tidy! Do silver cups come with lacquered bump strips?
Not sure mate, only realised that the blue ones didn't this morning... will have a closer look. I'd say they aren't obviously not lacquered, but that's probably due to the colour hiding it better.

Great looking Cup there.

I use to see one WR53 *** most mornings when I mine Iceberg FF172, the wheels suit the car so much better than the FF ones.

Lol, cheers Chris. No, it just wasn't me and when the missus said she missed the Clio too, that was it!

Great car, mind you, just not 'right'.

Good car but dull as f**k to drive.

i am surprised you guys didn't work that out before purchasing really.

as for the cup ads......tbh i think you shouldn't have been so cheap and should have gone for a ff......for the sake of a few quid the heated seats would have easily cured your numb bum syndrome

two things.

1) I took it in P/ex. Sold it and made profit. :)
2) What 172 has heated seats?!

Point made. ;)

Lol, dude, you promised to cure my numb arse...

Stupid thing is, Cups seem to command more than FF's now.

And, yeah, I thought I was over my "deriving excitement from driving" phase... turns out I was wrong! Still, sold the Golf for what I paid for it so can't complain!
