Evening sailor! Need to catch up soon, I want to compare your 172 Cup to my 200 Cup.

As per title.

My idea of a meet probably differs from other's. I don't personally see the point in standing around in a cold car park looking at French clutter. If a trackday or food/drink are involved, I'll be a little more receptive ;)

I'm from Hertford. I have a blue 200 Cup. Meet wise, I could think of nothing worst than standing around in the Gascoyne Way multistory car park lol

Is the seller based in Birmingham and does it have black wheels? Edit, 99% sure it is. Worth registering and reading these two threads... http://civictype-r.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=224176&hilit=racing+blue&start=60 http://civictype-r.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=129&t=224964 Long...

A Clio, visually stunning..? :S

Advanced car control training.

Accord Type R? Civic Type R? - EK9? EP3? FN2? FD2? Integra Type R? - DC2? DC5? NSX Type R?

I actually laughed out loud at this. The 182 has a dreadful interior compared to a DC5. By the way, noticed you location was Hertford. Were you parked in Hartham gym car park this evening? Noticed a black 182 parked two spaces in front of me.

The DC5 is a great car and much better than a 182 in my opinion. Engine and gearbox are superb, interior is a nicer place to be etc. Insurance is a little steep though. A slightly more diluted driving experience compared to the DC2 but as a road car, better.

I'm really happy with my Racing Blue. If it hadn't of been the free colour, I still would have specified it.

27 Clio 200 Cup (& Integra Type R track car)

It barely registers on my 'care' radar. Back in 2002 when I was 19, Renault offered free insurance to drivers aged 19+ and all of a sudden there was an explosion of Clios on the road. I was one such driver in a sea of black 1.2 Dynamiques. Did I care then? No. Do I care now with my 200 Cup...

I don't disagree, I had a Civic Type R @ 21, Focus ST @ 23, Impreza STI PPP @ 24. Now sold them for a house deposit and starting from scratch with a Clio 200. I perhaps think looking back now I should have not wasted money on fast cars, numerous trackdays, several Nurburgring season tickets...

People with no mortgages/rent, no commitments etc...
