    cup has no engine cover, less sound proffing, thiner front windows, no air con, no abs, no climate (theres a few with) cloth interior, engine harmonic dampner is smaller, different wheels (speedlines) different rear spoiler and different suspension setup. lighter than the equivalent ph2 clio non cup. tho i think an early ph1 172 is still lighter than a ph2 cup
