Type R and VTEC owners

I can't see how EP3s are so bad? I drive mine pretty hard on my daily commute and average 25-28MPG. Heavier car and no iVTEC

rich drives like he about to get laid at the end of every trip he takes

S2000 went today, sad to see it go but will have another

Sold it to a local garage a chap I know runs (Torque GT), he said I won't see it again as it's off to Sweden

He has a guy from over there who comes and buys all his S2000s, apparently hard to get over there as didn't make many lhd ones so he buys up rhd ones to sell over there.

Clarkey · 12 Aug 2013 at 23:52

Huh, hey made plenty of LHD ones.

Simon · 13 Aug 2013 at 00:24

Not in that many in Europe. Can't remember the numbers but they were relatively popular in the UK

19.85mpg 180miles
24.3mpg 206miles
26.16mpg 209miles
20.86mpg 162miles

car has catback and induction - 222bhp.

normally get 200ish to the tank but much more on motorway jaunts (230-260 miles to the tank). i only do town driving normally.

Nice so mine is about right, I wasn't expecting the world and it's my first fast car, vtec is getting used at every opportunity.

Do you use normal unleaded or premium stuff like V-power etc?

premium for me. ran cheap stuff once and it was noticeable.

the only thing i will say, for the couple of quid it costs per tank to put higher ron in, its just worth it knowing youre giving your car the best. its a highly strung motor so best to make sure it gets what it needs.

Jesus, I always assumed they were nearer 30mpg average..

Town driving only in traffic and when I'm not in traffic I drive it how you're supposed to.

Sounds muted and I hate the way it looks.

Theophany · 14 Aug 2013 at 18:46

Definitely agree on the soundtrack. Makes the quad exhausts look even more silly.

Akagi · 14 Aug 2013 at 19:03

It's likely that the exhaust system has been tuned for 'quietness'. The final production model will probably be a-lot louder

It may also be because the camera is zoomed in on the track so the car is a-lot further away than it looks.
