just a standard clio 182 with no cup packs i think :S

 

[Chippiegt]

How did you come to that conclussion?! Lol what's the difference between them?

 

[niall.pearce.7]

well u have no cup splitter and by the looks of it no cup spoiler. and ur wheels are silver and not anthracite and FF is i think both plus more. ( i think ) not an expert.

 

[M26]

No splitter, silver wheels and the normal style rear spoiler would suggest to me that it's just a normal 182 with no cup packs.

thanks for backing me up lol

 

[Chippiegt]

Ahh okay, cheers fella's! So a FF would be like mine but with both cup packs?

 

[niall.pearce.7]

i don't really know what the extras are on a FF tbh if someone experienced would like to step in here that would be great

 

[Lawro]

Ahh okay, cheers fella's! So a FF would be like mine but with both cup packs?

Yes.. Anthracite wheels, Cup suspension, Cup spoiler and front splitter.

 

[The Fatty]

FF has cup rear spoiler, cup wheels (anthracite instead of silver), front splitter and cup suspension + hubs (different bolt spacing's).

Well obviously it isn't a cup as it has climate control (i think) does it have the leather interior? As far as i'm aware the leather came on bog standard 182's and Cup's were a downgrade from there. (but the cups came with both cup packs as standard) you're car seems to be a 182 with no options at all (neither cup packs or paint)

and it being a cup has go to do with? no one said it was a cup? :S

also cups don't have cruise control either.

 

[Chippiegt]

It has the half leather, not sure if it's had the splitter at one point and it's just been ripped off?

 

[niall.pearce.7]

so FF's have both cup packs, leather seats, air con etc?

 

[niall.pearce.7]

if it hasn't got the cup spoiler it wouldn't have had the splitter, get a skoda fabia one of ebay tho look the tits! 12 quid as well

Yeah that was the plan mate!

 

[Bluebeard]

Basic 182 (Like in the OP) Has half leather, xenons, climate control.

Cup spoiler pack is a front splitter in black, larger 'Cup' rear spoiler.

Cup suspension pack is slightly lower, stiffer, wider iirc, and comes with Anthracite (grey) wheels.

All three of the above constitute a ''Full Fat''

a 182 Cup is a 182 with no leather, aircon instead of digital climate, No xenons, but both cup packs. Only available in Racing blue or Inferno.

 

[The Fatty]

so FF's have both cup packs, leather seats, air con etc?

half leather seats,
air con,
cruise control,
climate control,
xenon lights (automatic)
self balancing lights (as with all xenons),
cup sus,
cup hubs,
cup spoiler,
cup splitter,
cup wheels

think that just about covers a FF.

 

[niall.pearce.7]

so that would mean that a clio 182 with everything is a FF right?

 

[The Fatty]

yes, i.e full fat

 

[niall.pearce.7]

ok cool so mines a FF

 

[The Fatty]

lol. nice way to avoid asking the question lol

 

[Chippiegt]

Okay that's kinda cleared it up! So in that case, the most desirable spec would be a FF with both cup packs? I.e. the luxury of the half leather, digital climate control and xenons, but also getting the splitter and spoiler, upgraded suspension and darker wheels?

 

[Bluebeard]

Okay that's kinda cleared it up! So in that case, the most desirable spec would be a FF with both cup packs? ?

You can't have a FF with both cup packs.

A Full fat IS a car with both cup packs.

 

[The Fatty]

depends what you want it for, to go around a track the most desirable would be the cup. for normal use it would be the FF. the non-cups/FF's are the least desirable (for obvious reasons).

 

[Chippiegt]

lol. nice way to avoid asking the question lol

Haha Fly Niall!!

 

[sbridgey]

so that would mean that a clio 182 with everything is a FF right?

not quite, recaros and sat nav were options but rare so not included in the term FF.


Did I just confuse things?

true dat. lol

 

[niall.pearce.7]

lol. nice way to avoid asking the question lol

haha well i've never really been bothered but if someone else is bringing it up might as well

 

[Mr Burns]

Hope all is clear now Chippie... Even if your 182 had the Cup splitter, suspension, wheels and spoiler it wouldn't make it a 182 Cup, but a FF 182.

A 'Cup' has cloth interior and no climate control amongst other things, they're usually Racing Blue too although there's a couple of other colours available. They're meant to be a cost effective version, but it didn't quite work so well with the 182 as it didn't really prove any more hardcore than the regular ones.

 

[niall.pearce.7]

not quite, recaros and sat nav were options but rare so not included in the term FF.


Did I just confuse things?

yea :nono:

 

[The Fatty]

they are so rear I wouldn't worry about them. the sat nave was so s**te and looked ugly as f**k. I think if you had one, you would want to take it out asap lol

 

[Chippiegt]

Got it now! Every day's a school day! Cheers lads

 

[niall.pearce.7]

yea i saw what it looked like on the episode of top gear didn't look that impressive

 

[ontheway]

and it being a cup has go to do with? no one said it was a cup? :S

also cups don't have cruise control either.

I was discounting the other options and I think you'll find Cruise Control was an option on a CUP

 

[Mr Burns]

Yes, my 182 Cup had cruise control and basic A/C.

 

[sbridgey]

I was discounting the other options and I think you'll find Cruise Control was an option on a CUP

I think you will find it was standard on all 182's including the cup variant.

 

[ontheway]

Yes, my 182 Cup had cruise control and basic A/C.

As does mine

 

[The Fatty]

yes, my bad all come with cruise control. It was the early 172 its wasn't on iirc.

 

[niall.pearce.7]

iirc?
