Choose wisely before coughing up $$$ for one of these, let alone paying extra just for a red one. I'm 110% happier with my Type R even though it did get broke in to the other day!
Humandoing. How's it going with the Type-R? Has the gearbox broken yet? If not, I've heard it's a ticking time bomb. Literally all of the people on the internets have had the syncro go on 3rd year. LITERALLY ALL. And even worse than that, Honda won't even honour it under warranty!!!!!!!!! People are basically killing their families from the crushing realisation of it especially when you consider that the current market value is £3,000-£5,000 for them.

You don't have a Type R, you never had a Focus RS - just sat here waiting for you to tell us you've now moved on to your third imaginary "king of hatches" the Megane ....
The girlfriend still upset with the responses you get or has she left now?
Do you mean the imaginary girlfriend like everything else in Humandoing's life ? The guy has serious mental issues.The girlfriend still upset with the responses you get or has she left now?

The fact is that so long as someone such as Humandoing contributes to the forums in the way that they do folks are going to react to it and more often than not it isn't going to be positive. I don't think for one moment that makes those responding 'mugs', I would however question what type of person willingly enters into such exchanges knowing full well the level of negativity they are going to receive back.

This is a forum. Forums are where people can post their opinions and/or facts in the full knowledge that others can then react/engage with them just as you yourself have felt the need to react to what is in this thread. That is the very nature of a forum. If you genuinely thought that it was a mugs game to be involved in such a discussion, and you didn't want to be perceived as a mug yourself, then presumably you wouldn't have entered into contributing to the discussion in the first place?

Indeed it's all quite bizarre although I do think Humandoing should be somewhat defended, I am sure it's not totally his fault.The fact is that so long as someone such as Humandoing contributes to the forums in the way that they do folks are going to react to it and more often than not it isn't going to be positive.
