    Trackday views...

    I've been to Woodbridge a couple of times and yes, it's a cheap day on track. Lots of corners, slow and fast to throw your car around. One problem I found, lots of stones being thrown up and suffered a few chips on the windscreen and bonnet.

    197: Driving Tunez ???

    Any classic rock suits me. Hate that Techno and Rap. 'Bat out of hell' is great on track days.

    Hello, My new 197

    Hi here, already seen your car in around Rayleigh, makes me think about a red one but I'm not really fussy about colours, and can't make up my mind if I want to change to a 197/200, too refined these days? I like like my rough and ready Cup, always seems if I'm going fast. Will be going on...

    Bloody K-tec Spoiler!! *slight update*

    I would have used stainless nuts and bolts for something under the car or at least cover them in cavity wax/underseal.

    Aluminium Engine Corrosion

    Water getting on the aluminium can give the white spots as you describe. Condensation is the main reason and driving the car infrequently makes it worse, so I guess your car is parked up for long periods and you do short journeys.

    Garage Width For A 197

    2.5m. will be plenty of room but depends how much space you need to get out of the car. You won't be able to open the door fully of course as 3door cars have longer doors than 5 door cars. A length of thick old carpet nailed to the wall will stop your door edges being chipped.

    Average age and insurance ...

    I beleive the 200's are cheaper than my 172 Cup, too many youngsters driving these nowadays and writing them off.

    Yes mate I did see your ad. It's going to be some weeks before I have the funds, I'll keep you in mind, if you sell it in the meantime all well and good.

    R27 or 200

    Very helpfull guys. A cheap 197cup or 200cup then. I do like the 200 Cup spoiler, I suppose you can fit them aftermarket wise. I don't think I can be fussy about having Recaros when price comes first. An insurance categorised Cup will help keep the price down I guess, something like this...

    R27 or 200

    Hi all, I am currently strutting my stuff on the streets and tracks of the South in a 172 Cup. Having looked at the prices of used R27 and 200's I might push the boat out and treat myself to one of these but which one will best suit me? I'm not interested in the gizmos, toys, a/c and so on...
