Civic Type-R

[simon-c]

I'm thinking about getting a new Civic Type-r and just wondered if there was anything anybody knows that I should know about them before I commit.
Are there any good deals anyone knows about, I'm in the north west.

Thanks

Simon

Nippy cars tho!

Sorry about that, I normally lurk on Tuscan Speed 6 so I didn't know it was getting to be a bit of a drag.

Basically my choice was this or a Clio Cup. I bought this because I didn't want my door handles to fall off every time I accelerated or my steering wheel to come off in my hand)

I also got a good deal from www.micronetshowroom.com - £14297 on the road in Black

Definately the best hatch out there at the moment in my opinion, but then I'm biased

How long did it take to be delivered, and was it worth the agro to save 2 grand or so.

Thanks for the help everybody, I bought a second hand CTR from Riding and Co in Preston, great service. They put on new tyres, full service and even changed a rear wheel bearing they thought was whining a bit because they knew I was going to the ring in it in June.
It goes like stink, frightened a few of the local Max Power boys in it coming home from work. It's the only car I've ever had that's got the engine characteristics of a bike.

Thanks Again
