every time she catches viewing BB,Hillpower etc websites all I get is "And you can forget that, ur not pi$$ing about with that car"!!!:(.

Ah married life - LOL
 


good man, did you have a go in a cup and a 172 or just the 172 ?

has it helped you make you mind up whether to go for it or not ?

Quite impressed. Thats all you have to say. We need to hear more? :)

I take it you placed your order before you left. The test drive is always the killer. Very few walk away without leaving a deposite.

well I must admit that bloody silver thing u used to own was bloody rapid - though the flames from the exhaust discouraged closer inspection lol.

2400 miles..........I am ready!!;)

hehe bring it on!!!

btw this one seems to pop more flames than the silver one with the straight thru de-cat on hehe

if your looking for performance and arnt too bothered about leather seats, air con etc, and want to save some money in the process get the cup, its still an amazing car - ive had mine a week now, owned a 5 turbo for 5 years which was quite modified, and I never thought id be able to buy a brand new car which could rival it, but the cup does exactly that, its not as quick low down the revs, but once you hit 4-5k rpm it really does start motoring. I got mine from my local dealership for £11999 with diamondbrite and mats thrown in on an 03 plate... I was originally going to buy their demonstrator which was 1 day old when I went to look at it, they told me it was gonna cost £12,449 but after speaking to the sales guy he said he could do the cheaper price (11999) on the basis I ordered one and wait 5 weeks, purely because he had just got the demonstrator in and wanted to drive it himself !! hehe ...
