Copa Mondial-simply class

Advantages: style and comfort
Disadvantages: eventual scuffing

...In an era in which boots come and go on a seemingly weekly basis, and all manner of colours, materials and styles are tested with mixed success, The Nuvo Mundial or Copa Mondial remains a must for all serious footballers. Classicly stylish and so comfortable they feel like trainers, these are the perfect boots for someone who doesn't need to look flashy. Moreso than many of their expensive counterparts these boots suggest a quality player when being worn, not just someone trying to grab attention, and they will be seen from the sunday league to the Premiership for many years to come. It is obvious once you have owned these boots why they have been around for so long. Since my first pair I have never gone a season without these boots, and although I've had many boots made by many brands, none have matched Copa Mondials for quality...

Review of Domo Hotel Mondial, Dusseldorf

The greatest boots ever?

Advantages: Long lasting
Disadvantages: None

...knows the worst part of football is boot cleaning so I love these boots! Studs The studs are made of a good quality plastic/rubber compound. I have found them to be very hardwearing and they dont appear to wear down on concrete which can be a problem when you play at some of the grounds I play at. The studs allow me to keep my balance on most pitches although you may find if the pitch is very boggy it would be better to wear some metal studs which allow more grip. Summary For years these boots have offered me perfect fit and superb comfort, the Copa Mondial is an ideal boot for players of all levels. Sure they may not have the wow factor of your predators or the flair factor of your pink nike's but these boots sure are damn good....

Review of Adidas Copa Mundial Mens Football Boots

172 Cup - The one and only clio cup!

Advantages: Fantastic all round performance / Grip and more grip / the smile on your face
Disadvantages: Relatively high Insurance / harder to find an unmolested one / French build quality

...Having been the proud owner of a renaultsport 172 cup in glorious mondial blue for over 5 years in my opinion it is the most rewarding drivers clio there has been for the money. The way the car market is at the moment you can pick up a 172 cup for around £3 - 4k which for what it offers is fantastic value for money. Having previously driven the standard 172, Honda Type R and peugeot 206 Gti (main rivals when i bought my cup) i can honestly say the first drive in the cup was enough, i was smitten. It epitomised everything a hot hatch should be from the firm ride to the agressive stance. The lack of sound proofing and slightly raucous exhaust meant the sound of the glorious engine let you know immeadiately what it was doing. The steering was well weighted and you could almost feel every twist and bump of the road surface...

Review of Renault Clio sport 2.0

172Cup, performance on a budget

Advantages: Fast Cheap, Hardcore Hot Hatch
Disadvantages: higher insurance, not for faint hearted! OEM Exhausts fall off!!!

...The Cup is a modern equivalent of what the Clio Williams was back in the 1990s to the Hot Hatch Scene. I've owned my 172Cup for 4 years, the car is 170BHp (172PS) and weighs 1021Kg. The car is available in 2 colours (predominantly Mondiale Blue) and also there are some in Silver. There are full specs here http://www.renaultsport.co.uk/roadcars/heritage/clio172cup/ The car has cheaper interior than the normal 172, no side airbags, no Xenon lights, no Cruise Control, no traction control, no ABS, no spare wheel. There is no Climate Control on most 172Cups, but it was brought in later on in the car's life as an option. 0-60 in 6.5 seconds this car isn't shy! The insurance is higher than a normal 172, some companies won't insure the Cup (also known as the 'Widowmaker'). Make sure that you are a good or experienced driver, as...

Review of Renault Clio 172 Cup

RenaultSport Clio 172 Cup -

Advantages: A Unique Car with Power Unrivaled For Price
Disadvantages: Raw, Very Raw, more of a race car than a City Driver

...://www.searcheverywhere.co.uk/general/renaultsportclio172/renaultsportclio172cup.php Mondial Blue (Pearlescent metallic) 16" Alloy wheels are different Uplift rear spoiler Wider Track (car is wider at the wheels) comments: The 172 is classed as a rather quick hot-hatch, that was first compared with the 205 1.9 GTI when it first came onto the market. It has now been refined in the mark II 172, and this new 172 cup is the faster lighter and slightly more impressive model. It has been reviewed by magazines as hitting 60 mph from a standing start in 6.2 seconds, and outperforming most other cars within and outside its price band and class. RenaultSport have never been re-known for their economy in a car, but I can get 42 MPG if i take it steady (IE 70 mph on the M-way) or 60 around the country lanes etc without changing gear at every corner etc. if you use the gears, fuel...

Review of Renault Clio 172 Cup

Great value travel insurance

Advantages: Very competitive price, underwritten by Axa
Disadvantages: I haven't found any

...may well be excluded. The process of choosing and buying cover, is really very simple. There are links to policy types, FAQs, etc from the front of the web page. If you click on "Instant Quote" it lists the policy types available with "how do I decide?". From the "how do I decide?" link you can compare levels of cover and read the policy wording. If you decide to get a quote and/or buy then go back to the "Instant quote" page, select the policy type, click on the "proceed" button and follow the process through. P.S. They also do reasonably priced continental breakdown cover with the service provided by Mondial. I haven't really shopped around, so I can't say how the prices compare. PPS. I've rated them excellent on APR, so that it's the same as the other ratings. It should be N/A, but that's not an option I'm allowed....

Review of Everything that starts with L ...

Easy Peasy

Advantages: Cheap, a lot of short haul destinations covered
Disadvantages: Not always the best deal, hidden charges

.... I like this touch as often there is a degree of flexibility when you are travelling independently and saves putting in all the different combinations manually, if you only do two searches you have covered a six day window which should be more than enough. After you have chosen your flight you go through to a confirmation page which summarises your flight costs and taxes (I really wish they would include these in the listed price on the previous page, but there you go. Ryanair do the same thing, so it was not wholly unexpected). There is also the option to buy their travel insurance from Mondial. From the perspective of a long weekend break this seems to have a quite competitive price with reasonable cover, but it is always worth comparing such deals on the web, as it is so easy to do these days. There is also the option to book...
