I was charged £16 labour to change a wiper blade! Otherwise the service was good.

I had a Cup to, I thought that was its best feature. (lack of it);)

I had exactly the same dilema, I had a 172 CUP, I needed the next car to be noticable quicker for the extra cash and the CTR just isnt. I went for the Focus RS which is definatly quicker, My advice if you have money would be to go 4wd, scooby or something. on anything other than perfect dry...

I had an imported 172 CUP from holland, and it had an alarm. It was a great car. the lack of ABS is not to much of a problem. you learn the limits of the breaks and ajust your driving accordingly. I found it added to the rawness of the car which I liked.

I have had no issue with my Cup or my dealer, Watford by the way, apart from there labour charge, £16 to change wiper blades, Taking the P!ss.

Welcome. Sweet RX7 "You can sleep in your car, but you cant race your house"

Even now the 172 cup is still practically 100KG lighter than the 182. thats a hell of a lotta weight. I dont think the 182 Cup should be a Cup, I think it was a marketing exercise, Just a lower spec 182. Roy, I still would however go for the 182 Cup, I am like yourself not fussed about...

I am in a similar situation. I am fast approaching end of ownership on my Cup, Need to get ride of it while its still worth something. I was looking at an STI but have discovered I can’t afford one. I have now got it down to two options, the new 182 Cup probably in that funny orange colour or a...

Mine does as well, Ive got used to it now, I ignore it, itll go away, probably. "its a Renault!"

Ill probably be at the pod on the 31st, £25 all in

I did 10 Runs. went up there with a group of LCRs. one other cup as well, My first run was my fastest 15.312 at 91.72 across the line. I seemed to hit 15.3s all day no matter what rpms I started at. Is this a good time? the car is completely standard, nothing taken out. My mates LCR was...

Thats reassuring, Should be a laugh, looking forward to it.

What car did you do the 11.226 in? I suspect a massive persentage of it is technique rather than car pace, although that obviosly helps.
