Ordered my 197 cup today :)

[Se7en172]

Key all the way mate I have never had a keycard, but it does not appeal to me in the slightest!
Just been told that the recaros are in a cloth trim?

Got to bear in mind this is probably a prototype model might find the fininshed car is colour coded

 

[godders182]

i reckon black mirrors

recaros should be same as in r27 - cloth trim - very nice

 

[jamie_c1973]

whats with not colour code the mirrors?

or door handles.

Looks like a plumbers van

 

[godders182]

yeah.............but all plumbers vans are fasters than 172cups, check out the 'knowledge' in 'evo' magazine

Whats the big fuss over Xenons? I've never really understood it.

Once you've had a car with them, you'll hate one without them as I found going from the DC5 (with HIDS) to a CTR.

Can't you just buy Xeon bulbs if it annoy you that much?

When i sold my 182 and got in my dads focus it was like driving with candles

No, but iirc you can have HID conversions

Can't you get an R27 for £14,000?
If the cup was lightweight and had a decent spoiler then maybe...
I think it's the fact I'm a full fat man that I'm not a fan of it.

I was quoted just under 14K for a R27.

Get it done fletch.

all new build slots for the R27 are now closed, they were a few weeks ago.

i was going to order one, i even had my deposit ready!

all they have now are the pre-specced cars already ordered

If it just had a little bit more power, then i would have, great car, just a little bit to grown up for me atm.

Was it a weight saving exercise or a cost saving exercise?
I mean how much weight has been saved by removing the handsfree card system from the car in favour of a key and ignition?

Maybe this is just a way to shift more clios?

Does look the dogs in white with black wheels though!

Not the same thing. :nono:

 

[Richyy182]

I like the sound of this 197 in white you lucky people

 

[Tim(e)]

So its basically the same weight as every other 197 then....with zero toys, white paint and black rims and all for a similar price to an R27....

 

[Ricardinho]

^
a fair bit cheaper than an r27 though isnt it?!

 

[Se7en172]

I don't use the toys anyway and in all honestly I don't care about the cup spec ect, The only reaon I want the car is because it's in white
