Racing Blue 182

[Shindig]

Am i right in thinking the Racing Blue 182 is fully cupped. As in Full Fat i believe the term is on the board?.

So it has the air con and the cup packs etc???

 

[DebV6]

The cup packs will be an option if it's not the cup version. The wheels will be darker, and it will have a slightly larger rear spoiler and a front splitter if it is cupped.

But with or with or without the packs it will still have climate control, xenons, half leather etc. Is that what you're asking? This is called a full fat as people call them, yes.

 

[Shindig]

right, so there is a Racing Blue 182
and then there is the Racing Blue 182 Cup. I assume that adverts will specify the cup packs that may have been added.

Deb182 - I see from your avatar you have a Racing Blue 182! You like it??

 

[Christopher]

yes.

Racing Blue was offered on either the 182, 182 with Cup Packs and the 182 Cup.

The standard 182 will have silver wheels and smaller spoilers.

The 182 with Cup Packs (like mine) will have anthracite wheels, larger spoilers and leather, climate, xenons etc.

The 182 Cup will have all the body addenda of the car above, but without the leather, xenons, climate etc. They do have air-con though, unlike the 172 Cup.

I've changed the spec on my car slightly though...

 

[DebV6]

Yep, they do the racing blue in the cup and also as 'full fat'. Ads should specify, but some don't seem to know, or advertise a ff with cup packs as a cup from what I've seen, so best to go a bit clued up lol!

Yep, I love my racing blue, definitly the best colour! Looks amazing in the sun and freshly cleaned, really stands out! Always get people commenting that they like the colour too.

 

[Shindig]

thanks for the replies you 2. thats helped me loads.
I need to learn how to recognise the different models of clios I see around town etc.

cheers again

 

[Christopher]

yep. easily the best colour imo.

they look wet when they are clean too, the paint is very liquid-looking.

 

[Mwindow]

to right its the best colour! i've been at a garage in wilmslow today lookin at black gold, titanium and petrol blue one's. pretty much made my mind up on the titanium when a racing blue pulls into the carpark next to the garage.

the colour has to be seen in the flesh to believed!

Ditto that! Racing blue's an amazing colour.

Love my anthracite alloys too :approve:

 

[Karlos182]

Yep, we all love the Racing Blue!

 

[ChrisR]

Used to think it was a naff colour when first out, however I now love it and really want one

I had a B reg fiesta in a similar colour many years ago

 

[Owen]

Mmm.....Racing Blue! Lol.

Am i right in thinking there are two cup packs? And what is in each of them?

If so, can you order them independently?

 

[Christopher]

Cup Spoiler Pack

Cup Suspension Pack

And yes, they could be ordered separately.

 

[springer]

So how can you tell its got cup suspension?I know they are slightly lower but can you tell the difference just by looking?

 

[Craig]

it will have darker alloys, a bigger spoiler and a front splitter

 

[springer]

Says above you could order them seperatly?So did the black wheels come with the suspension pack?

 

[edde]

So how can you tell its got cup suspension?I know they are slightly lower but can you tell the difference just by looking?

Darked wheels give it away but they have been swopped before now.

Best way is to measure the hub bolt spacing 54mm and its a none cup and 60mm its a cuped car.
