I like Clio's, not driven a 182/172 though
I'm a bit worried that they're a bit tinny?

I drove a mate's 172 cup and it's great. Preferred it to a 182FF I have also driven.
Trophy is also ace though

Only thing putting me off a cup (172) is no abs. Not sure how much of an issue this is

Cups are about a milliseconds faster than a normal specced 172.
The extra kit outweighs the negligible performance improvement for me.

what do you want out of a new car...
if its to be good on track I think you should avoid the golf, perhaps the mini.... and look more at the DC and Clio.
DC2 would be a much better car IMO. DC5 better still

I think change is good Gav, but then if you get another CTR make sure you take the induction kit with you.

What's so special about these? 
People don't half bang on about them, can't see much difference other than the seats?
