I kept thinking if I get a GTI then I will always wish I had got the Ed30 but as the spec is pretty big on the one im getting I think im going to be more than happy.

I could always get a remap for more power if I feel the need I suppose  :wink:

You have the same thinking as me with my 1st 2 GTi's,  your never happy till you own one, ive been there, and to be honest or though a good spec car  by the looks of it, you WILL always wished you had just waited a tad longer for a good spec ed30 to pop up. It cost me a few Grand in damage to my pocket, but i couldnt be happier right now ( maybe with a milltek fitted id be EVEN MORE happier).

Great car non the less, and WILL make you smile from ear to ear. Enjoy it, We all here are the lucky few that can afford a Mk5, so enjoy every drive like its your last!  :smiley:

By the way pics asap please. It is your duty  :grin:  :wink:

nice one mate....dont swear around forum though (type R) i presume a civic?!?  :sick:  :sick:  :grin:


It was up for £22,995 but I negotiated £800 off as I went armed with tons of adverts, PCP quotes etc. I probably still paid too much people will no doubt tell me but im happy now!


it doesnt matter what other people think as long as at the end of the day your happy with the deal!  :wink:

Yes a Civic! Great car for me a few years ago but im into a bit of refinement now.

The CTR was brilliant, did exactly what it was supposed to. I think Honda have ruined the Type-R ethos now to be honest but if they didn't offer all the creature comforts and toys on the new CTR then they couldn't compete in todays market with the likes of the Golf Gti, Focus ST etc
