Aye, I did read your review mate.. but I think I will have to atleast give it a try, then if I decide I cant live with it i'll go for something else.. perhaps one of the older shaped ones or a BM.
But with all the bells and whistles 22k isnt that bad I suppose?

-S2000 04 plate+ , In Black with Red/Black interior *Dribbles*
-Civic Type R in Either Black or Red with as much goodies as possible
-Subaru of some sort - just looking into these...after having amazing ride out yesterday
-Audi S3 (new shape)

If it's in the next year or two a deisel Xantia.
If my Crudmobile lasts till I can save up for a proper car I'll be looking at V5 Seat Toledoes (hard to find), Fiat Panda 100hp (I think I'll find it too noisy), MX5 (probably too expensive) or a BMW 5 series (I'd never get a pay rise again).

nice to hear i am probably going to be looking at a S14a 1998 - 1999 checking pistonheads almost hourly.
Something boring. I'm done with wasting money on cars, for now. Enjoying living in the City and spending my money on going out lots, rent, and council tax/bills.
Once I settle down then I might consider something a bit more fun. I'm only young so want to enjoy living as much as possible with my friends. I'm always going to be able to drive.

Theres a nice one on autotrader 7 miles from me with 18,500 miles on it, full cream leather interior five quid short of £7000. If you *cough* wire me the money i'll *cough* buy it for you.
Well, with an induction kit & exhaust upgrade you'll get a nice extra punch
One of my shocks went a few years ago so replaced all the suspension and shocks, put an induction, exhaust and boost controller on it... Nice
Obviously with the age of it now, it's probably not a lot more powerful than when she was new... But she's lovely to drive... Really predictable rear end (in the dry)...
It doesn't really have all the bells and whistles though and the stuff it does have feels cheap. It's a flawed car.
Yes, just confirms that my next car (given 6 lottery numbers coming up!) would be en e60 M5 (Touring or Saloon, - not fussy!)
oh god the powah!!
wouldnt of minded any of the two tbh!awesome machines.

What about compared to the one before it? not the same for the looks.. but I suppose from what they were saying you can get a decent type R for half the price.. suppose it will be a case of trying both.. not too clued up on Hondas.
The one before it was a proper Type R. You got a seat, a steering wheel and some electric windows. The rest of the car was in the way it drove. It was a proper hot hatch.
This new one is just... a mess. They've stuffed it with kit most hot hatch buyers dont want, so instead it tempts people who do care about kit, who then find the build quality is crap and the ride is awful, and they've blunted the hardcore edge for those previous Type R fans.
Fail Honda, Fail.
Put it this way - I do not intend to spend an awful lot more than the price of a Type R on my next car. But look at two of the cars I've mentioned.
Hmmm, Honda Civic Type R or an E55 AMG/BMW M5?

£7000!!!!!
Is it stage 3 or something?Over on the owners club forum there some going for about £4000-5000... Mind you they obviously have A LOT more milleage!
Something Japanese and Fast
When? all depends if I'm willing to cough up the value of the car for insurance now or wait till I'm 21 (Currently 19)
Bonus in April...we shall see
See thats what it is, I want something Jap next.. having had the Mini for a year, the novelty has certainly worn off, I love my car but I want something that will rip my face off.
Teg/Civic or as I said the BM if I dont fancy either of them.

Why not just type Civic? Its got the exact same amount of letters as "Civvy" so your not really saving time unlike when people say scoob
