I really like them. I wasn't a fan at first but I'd definitely consider one now!

What sort of price would you be looking at mate? I'm very interested..

If I get one, it'll probably be a 200 rather than a 197, simply due to the fact that I know a few people that have driven both and said the difference is night and day between the handling..

Cheers mate. See, that looks very dull to me. Think it'd have to be a FF with cup chassis then..

So I wouldn't be disappointed with the cup interior then? The last thing I want is to regret getting a cup because of the interior..

Yeah I'm just looking for some general pictures of the centre console etc :)

Hi guys, could some of the 200 Cup owners put up some pictures of their dashboards please. I'm looking at 200 Cups, but can't seem to find any decent pictures of the dashboard. I know it's the same as the base spec cars but I want to see if it's as bad as I think it will be. Thanks Josh

Alright Chris! Need to take a drive in a 200 soon :)

Nice updates mate. Definitely one of my favourite projects on here :clap:

Hi guys, looking to buy a 197 in the New Year, but really fancy an Akrapovic Evo system. I've seen the system for the 200, but only Jamsport seem to advertise it for the 197 (even Akrapovic themselves don't list it). So I'm assuming they've just listed it incorrectly. Now, I'm pretty...

Nice looking cars and some nice pictures :)

If your tyres are very low then that could be your issue..

Awesome project mate, just read through from start to finish :) Love the car, not overly keen on the steering wheel badge, but each to their own!

Looks lovely! I've never been a massive fan of the Cup spoiler, but they've really grown on me recently!

Right, had a look and I can get a cheap Meg 225 for about 3k, which I can then sell the other parts and make roughly 1-1.5k back, meaning I'll have all of the stuff needed for the conversion for 1.5-2k. I think I'll probably be going for the 197 and doing this in the near future. I don't...

Is that getting someone else to do it though? I'd be sourcing all parts myself and fitting it all. The only part I'd need doing is the mapping. If it's that expensive to do myself then I'll give that a miss I reckon..

Because I'm getting bored of the Focus and the fact you have "RS Tax" on absolutely everything. It's just an idea. I don't particularly like the look of the 225/230 so that's why I want the Clio. I'll have plenty of money left over after buying one too, so that can go into savings..

So many varying opinions! If I were to go from the Focus to the Clio (I'd have to be the Clio, I'm not massively keen on the 225/230 Meg, and the 250 is slightly out of my price range) how much would I be looking at for a 225 engine swap. I just need an idea of the cost of parts and what's...

I'm assuming he means the Cup chassis and Recaro seats?

I think I'm going to go for it to be honest. If I get bored of the power then I'll do the Meg engine swap. I can't see it being that difficult tbh. I'm a mechanic by trade, so have access to all of the tools I'd need and I've experience in swaps before so should be ok!
