Was it a track or a daily for you. Did it suit what you wanted it for? Was 5 months too long for owning one?
What was your general impressions of it?
Hard Ride? Good point/ bad points?

Was my daily ride, very hard ride and quite thirsty for the engine size. Handling was amazing but power in the 197 let it down, thats why they brought out the 200 which has better low end torque. Good looking motor but didn't have enough poke for my liking. When buying watch out for the recaro seats as they are poorly made. Bolsters go in no time

Cheers for the low down. I can believe they'll feel a little underpowered. I think the handling of the 197 Cup is its main selling point, you cant expect too much from a N/A 16v 2L.

Did yours have the Gear Ratio update?
