Is there any way to tell by looking the difference between a full fat and a cup pack? There's a dealer near me selling this... on their website it doesn't mention Cup Pack but on their ebay listing of the same car it says it is. I'd probably just ask them if I had any faith in dealers. Ebay listing

Ah yeah, I've just found Portland's post in this thread. Good stuff. Is the handling in the full fat/ cup pack version significantly worse than the Cup/ Trophy?

Does anyone know - or know of a link to - the differences between the 182 Cup, 182 Cup Pack, and the 182 Trophy? I've got a vague idea but by no means certain. Cheers.

How do these compare in terms of performance, build quality, and equipment to a 182 Trophy?

That's something I'll certainly be looking for when the time comes to buy.

This is a bit more reassuring, thanks. What's the deal with the dampers that I hear are preposterously expensive? Just get them refurbed every so often? Also, has anyone had any dealings with http://www.warrantydirect.co.uk? They seem to do a good service but I can't seem to find a price for...

Zoinks y'all. Looks like they're more available than I assumed. This is A Good Thing. Better get some cash in order and begin the search. There's a couple on Fleabay as well but they're silver... surely that's not right?

Yo My main problem at the minute is that I haven't got my own car, so traipsing round the country looking for one isn't really an option. That allvehicles thing looks interesting. What's the deal with that, you just tell them what you want, they find it then you go and get it?

Hi folks Just thought I'd say hello. I'm after getting a car and after my usual intensive research I've decided to make it my quest to get a 182 Trophy. I realise these things are pretty rare and probably only appear for sale as often as Haley's comet visits the solar system but I'll keep my...
