Yes it's a reasonably big group in East Anglia. Shan't say which for fear of being binned for naming and shaming.

Have mailed the MD to let them know my experience, but a bit late now. Would really have liked a Civic Type R, but to be honest the Golf drove it into the weeds!

honda have been let down by their suppliers, but the main problems have been fixed on the new cars 01/01/07 onwards most of the problems occoured on the 55 reg cars mainly the diesels needing rear shocks and eps unit. Honda claim 20%-25% of 05 cars to be effected.

Which is rediculous, considering the weakest part of the previous generation Civic was the EPS system. I alone went through 3 new racks and 3 new control units in my CTR.
