@Honda_UK £43k Civic Type R price c0ck up?
Discussion
Anyone see that? The @Honda_UK twitter account just tweeted all the major UK car mags/sites (PH Included) stating that the OTR price of the new CTR was going to be £43k... but now the tweets have been deleted?
I can only hope they meant to put 34k... even that's a lot.

Hi everyone,
We've just had Honda on the phone who have confirmed that their twitter account was hacked - hence the offending tweets have been removed. Its a shame in some ways as it had sparked a hell of a Friday afternoon debate here at PH HQ! Lets just hope that when they confirm the actual price it is better aligned with everyone's expectations.
As you were everyone...

A lot of people expected it to be circa 40K due to the ech and performance on offer.
Did they? What's the RRP on a Megane 265 Cup? Around 30k is it not?HorneyMX5 said:

Stirring up interest perhaps...
Viral Marketing, or whatever...

We just had a similar discussion in the office. Well, we had to try and carry on the Friday afternoon debate somehow! One thing is for sure, there are a lot of people who have become a lot more interested in the car's price in the last hour... But...

If you went to the bother of hacking an account you'd post something a hell of a lot more controversial than that.
They will sell the square root of f
k all of them if they are priced anywhere near £40k. I expect it will be mid £30ks to compete with the likes of the M135i and Golf R but realistically it needs to be priced closer to the Seat unless it's a limited run car.
