How many Mondial Blue 172 Cups are there?



  Swift Sport
Just wondering as a friend wants one and is convinced they are 'limited edition'.

Tried the search tool but couldn't find an answer!

2302 were registered in Mondial Blue
And 90 in Iceberg Silver

Thats more blue cups than than my Iceberg 172FF (which is most common colour) and i thought the 172 Cup was a limited edition as well :eek:

So surely the cup aint that limited.
 
The question is, how many are left after the winter

Very true after that it may turn limited edition.

But is that really down to no ABS them being wiped out ?

I don't think so, if you know you have No Abs take it easy.
Or take it easy full stop ;)

Stop driving like a bell end and your car (cup) will live through winter :)

ABS will have no effect on ice at all. If you're on ice, snow, driving like a tw@t, or just a driver error then ABS isn't gona save you.

The cup is a very twitchy car tho.

We dont really get proper snow, and dont get that much ice either, what we do get lots of though is wet roads, which is when ABS is very usefull ;)

Have you not been out for the last month? Roads round here (Cheshire) are proper icy!!! I bet i've had the ABS kick in twice in 5 yrs (not in crash situations either)

Drive every day mate! Not had much ice at all apart from late at night on the quietest side roads.

I've had my abs on a lot lately on ungritted side streets in the ice. Tbh most of it is becuase I wasn't used to driving on ice because i'm in expereinced. Just got to get on the brakes early and not too hard.

Never had the abs on in normal conditions inc heavy rain. Imo if your having the abs kick in driving normally even in the rain your driving is to blame.

I hear from a source at renault that the Cups in silver were left like that as they ran out of blue paint.

How can they run out of paint:S

Silver cups look a little dull to my eyes, turinis need to be darker to break up the silver a little.
