For thoughs who don't know me, I used to own a 182 Cup which I sold for a C2 VTS, which is now up for sale. I'm intending to get a 172 Cup on the cheap but I'm not 100% about a few things. Does the lack of 'driver aids' make much difference? Will I miss the A/C and other 'luxuries' which the 182 Cup came with? Or should I skip the Cup and just get a 172?

If you think you will miss it, get a late cup with climate control
Do you work down in that complex bit down by Hampton roundabout? Just recognised the road.
It might not be needed and the mian reaosn for its use might be the reaosn for our pourer driving now adas but I'd have paid for it on my car for early moring/late nigh driving for the aditional safety it offers.

yep i work for barlows electrical, ( the big unit at the bottom, you can see it from the road) the units in the pics are round the corner! As for the ABS, i had it on my old punto turbo, and from memory it only kicked in twice at most, doesnt bother me at all, as said previously, i'll get another methinks!!!

Nice easy drive to work then for you.
I agree I've only had ABS kick in a few time bit much like airbags I've only had them kick in once but nice to know there there.
lol, it keeps on changing!!!!

not at all, just take em steady and they are no problem. Yeah they are height adjustable, damping is fixed, but imo is spot on, not too hard, not too soft, but a 100% better than the gaz ones i used to have (they have adjustable damping..... in theory lol)
I would go for a cup, especially if you do trackdays.
Mine went on this year's Cannonball rally and went really well. mine is totally standard except catback exhaust panel filter and tinted windows (worth thinking about if you are doing alot of summer driving).
