Anyone on here own one? Whats the fuel consumption like? Also, what do you pay for insurance?

Any Cup owners - do you think its worth having a Cup or paying extra for the normal 172?

thats what one of the guys at my gym gets, mostly town driving with a bit of B roads. i guess you could probably average low 30`s, and maybe high 30`s at a constant 60mph. But you dont buy a car like this for the fuel consumption do u?

has seats your gran would like a horrid dash and really strange heavy and light clutch.

Buy the 172 or a diesel if u want to save on mpg i.e A Gti tdi. Apparently with a chip theyre pretty nippy

The Cup is quicker anyway, the 182 only beats it on top end by 5mph.
