Isit stupid....

[Clouds_mate]

To buy the Civic sport over a Type-r?

I know speedwise yes..

But i want a civic, type-r insurance is £1670 and the sport is £700.

I will only really be using the car to go to work in, (town driving) so dont need a uber fast motor and the normal weekend trips to the gym and stuff like that.

I will only really have the car for a year or just over (as my new company will be providing a company car) and they dont seem to be losing much money on the market.

Just fancy a change. what you think?

[Karl]

Sports are uber gash imo.

Obviously nice cars, but it'll be extremely dull.

Itll be like driving a Furio with good build quality imo.

Id rather have a Golf GT TDi?

[Tupps]

Civic Sport's are smart motor's mate.....

Most people would say go for the type R, but when you take into consideration running costs, insurance and actually buying the car....is it really worth it?

I know i bought a vts over a vtr but the difference isn't THAT big between the two

[Karl]

failing that...
Four pots and Pro race 1.2's are a winner?


Just run your VTR into the ground, saves you $$$, especially if your not too bothered about what it is.

[Mystic]

Decide which is more important to you, economy or fun.

Get a Prius or a Type-r :)

[Scattle]

The sports are not too bad, and as said the running costs will be lower and the insurance is a lot less as well.

[Jacko]

yes...if you dont need it and it'll save you a bomb them pick the sport..smart cars imo

[Jamie]

Agreed with souless keep the R save money for something more worthwhile no point on a car which will be going in a year tbh

[AdamW]

Yes Please....

Like i said. New job means i have to drive through the centre of town so i wont even get out of second gear.

Only time i will 'open her up' is on the motorway to my dads house. Which you can only do the speed limit anyway.

Last year i paid 2.2k for my VTR insurance, now i paid £1000 for this years. I dont really want to pay 1.7k for another years insurance. Id rather pay under 1k from now on.

Running cost wouldnt be a massive issue as i will only be doing about 5mile a day driving anyway.

[Tupps]

Adam shows a nicely modified type R and a bad pic of a bog standard sport.....

With a few mods the sport will be NICE!

[Clouds_mate]

Agreed with souless keep the R save money for something more worthwhile no point on a car which will be going in a year tbh

But i wont lose much on the car compaired to a saxo.

So im not really losing out on much...

[leeroybrown]

TBH Leckie they look both the same

Sport as the Tupe r kit in it its just the wheels that look small tbh, which are easily changed

Also you can get the sports in the nice blue colour which stupid Honda should have the Type R's in.

I drove one, feels together and nice to drive, perfomance isnt that bad, very smooth

But as i like speed it would be type r for me

The sport on the other hand is a very good car!!!!!

[Clouds_mate]

Obviously i wouldnt keep it on standard wheels lol

[Karl]

Keep the R, run it into the ground.


Leeroy, you say performance isnt that bad.

I know tis completely irrelevant in Leckies eyes, but 120bhp from a 1.8 16v? 0-60 in 10.3s or whatever it is,

thats quite a deal slower than his Saxo.

[Mystic]

I dont get out of 2nd in the S around town anyway. Whos your insurance with? Must be able to get it cheaper than that? Im payin £830 for my S fully declared + i got a claim too :err:

[leeroybrown]

Look at the pics adam posted

They dont look any different

Its just the seats and Engine

[CampDavid]

I'm no fan, better cars about. Fabia VRs is a cheap insurence, cheap to run and fun thing. Civic Sport is a dull pretend thing.

[AdamW]

I disagree.....I think you should get the CTR....as a week into buying the sport you will be thinking of what you could of have.

Search around for some better quotes get it down to the 1200 mark and snap one up......

[leeroybrown]

Fabia VRs is a cheap insurence

Remapped ones go even better

[Robb]

......just wack some decent wheels on it and take the sport badge off.

[Karl]

I'm no fan, better cars about. Fabia VRs is a cheap insurence, cheap to run and fun thing. Civic Sport is a dull pretend thing.

/agree

[Tupps]

yes please

[Karl]

is that the Saxo version of a SeeSaw? Could get a house under those front arches.

[Clouds_mate]

Keep the R, run it into the ground.


Leeroy, you say performance isnt that bad.

i dont really want the saxo. I keep kidding myself im going to do mods to hopefully make me enjoy and like the car.

The only reason i have the car is it cost next to nothing to run and cheap parts.

[AdamW]

Are those VTS wheels? original

[Certi]

The sports are really nice cars. My pal just bought one the same colour as mine. Obviously not as fast as the Type R but they are still pretty quick.

The Type R is pretty bad for petrol consumption so the Sport is probably the best compromise.

[Tupps]

No mate its a civic sport......

EDIT - Saxo Furio

Much prefer the VTS

[Karl]

The only reason i have the car is it cost next to nothing to run and cheap parts.

Isnt that the reason you want the Civic?

Except you'll be more out of pocket for the initial buying cost.

[Hannah]

I'd get a sport, if your only going to be driving round town in 2nd gear then any cars gotta be better than doing it in a saxo?...

When I used to work at York (1hr30mins) I used to hate driving it in a saxo, would of loved a comfy car. 13 speed cameras all the way so wouldn't of been able to push it anyways.

I say go for it! :)

EDIT: If your saving hunderds of dollar as well, you've got nothing to loose. I'd rather have a more comfy car with cheaper costs than a un-comfy saxo that costs a bomb.

[Tupps]

Classy, Comfortable, Affordable cars are the future....

I know my next car will be

[AdamW]

Yawn, you are all faggots

[Jacko]

seat leon tbh...

[Karl]

Am I the only person that finds my Saxo seats reasnobly comfy? :S

[leeroybrown]

Keep the R, run it into the ground.

Balls to that then

Get the Type R... although you can get a cheaper 182 which comes more equipped

[CampDavid]

To be honest, if I had that trip, I'd just buy something slow and cheap to insure, you're insurence is a joke by the way.

[Karl]

Yawn, you are all faggots

I agree with you,
Type R or bust.

No other Civic I'd consider buying.

[Robb]

hahahahahahahahaha. get a skoda leckie. they iz well cool.

[Clouds_mate]

Isnt that the reason you want the Civic?

Except you'll be more out of pocket for the initial buying cost.

No...

I want the civic because i like them..

But if you mean isthat why i want a civic sport....no i want taht because its cheaper to run. As i said the actual running costs of an CTR woudlnt be a problem.

I just cant justify spending abotu 1.7k on insurance....again

[Karl]

Balls to that then


What do you mean?
you didnt realise how poorly the Sports perform?

[Kelly]

Do you want the model Adam posted pics of?

Wouldn't get a brand new one cos my dad has one from insurance cos some bint hit the car last Friday (long story) and the visibility out the rear window is very very poor

[leeroybrown]

you didnt realise how poorly the Sports perform?

In my eyes performance on them is absolute crap

But thats my opinion other people think different

[Karl]

Leckie- mate, why is your insurance so High,

all my mods are declared,
i declared i drive to work.
grp14 car - 1043 tpft or 1200 fully comp,
plus im 2/3 yrs younger?

[Tupps]

I was driving about in a Fiesta ST last night....

Nice interior, Nippy....but just wasn't worth the money (To buy, Insurance and fuel)

I'd prefer a 1.25 lookalike

[Karl]

In my eyes performance on them is absolute crap

But thats my opinion other people think different

They suck performance wise real bad,
some dude tried to give me some jiip in one a few days back on a dual carriageway...he got spanked.

[Karl]

Agree'd with some stuff about the Fezzy ST there Tupps, their interior rocks.

[stiffler69]

Mate of mine recons you can get a 160bhp sport model not sure how true that is but surely that will be pretty quick and could look the tits

http://www.parkers.co.uk/cars/specs/data-detail.aspx?deriv=24212

Yep there it is 2.0 sport with the trimmings only insurance group 11 and 158bhp

[AdamW]

It just amazes me because if anyone else posted a thread like this they would get flamed with comments like..

"Sports version is a poor mans type r"

[Clouds_mate]

To be honest, if I had that trip, I'd just buy something slow and cheap to insure, you're insurence is a joke by the way.

Yeh i no it is. Joys of been on my dads for 2 years. Had to bite the bullet.

[AdamW]

Mate of mine recons you can get a 160bhp sport model not sure how true that is but surely that will be pretty quick and could look the tits

Spend a ruck modding up to type r standard....dont see the point.....why not just use that money towards type r insurance?

[CampDavid]

hahahahahahahahaha. get a skoda leckie. they iz well cool.

I'd have a Skoda over everything else from the VAG group.

Seat - Budget and shit. The unironic Skoda

VW - zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Audi - I spent 5k extra and still have a car which understeers badly. Nothing says wanker like having 4 rings attached to the front grill

[Karl]

Leckie, you considered a Corsa C SRi 1.8?

Better performance than a VTR, not that much to buy, nor run.
Look pretty nice too! Good solid cars tbh!



Edit: I like the look of Audis :(

[David]

How about an MGZR...?

[Tupps]

End of the day it depends what you want from a car....

Leckie explained he rarely gets past 2nd gear, seems stupid to buy a performance car, pay the insurance etc just to sit in first gear!

Many people COULD say the furio is the poor mans vts

[Karl]

How about an MGZR...?


how about lolZR

theyre terrible.

Golf GT TDI ftw, (or Skoda VRS for that matter)

extremely good on fuel consumption, performance is there when you need it also.

[leeroybrown]

how about lolZR

MG WTF

NOOOOO Chance cant see him in one of them

[CampDavid]

If you never get out of 2nd I'd get an auto. 3 series? 318i cabrio would be a nice pose.

[AdamW]

Hardly you can pick up a MK1 VTS for cheaper that a MK2 furio

[Karl]

Leeroy, i didnt suggest it, I laughed at it ;)

[Karl]

Furios seem to be the most expensive of the Saxo range, VTS looks, cheap to insure.

[Robb]

I'd have a Skoda over everything else from the VAG group.

Audi - I spent 5k extra and still have a car which understeers badly. Nothing says wanker like having 4 rings attached to the front grill

what and a nice shiney skoda badge makes you king of the road?

i would honestly rather walk than drive a skoda. grow up, not everything is about how fast you can chuck something into a corner. loser.

[leeroybrown]

I said go test drive all the ones you fancy then decided from there

[Jacko]

robb will not be a fan off this statement...

Edit: lolz

[Clouds_mate]

i see both points that everyone is making.

I just dont fancy paying an extra 1k just to lose the 'poor mans type-r' all i gain is a faster engine..Which i woudlnt really use anyway. Im not the one to bomb about a busy town centre at 9am. Plus atm i own a saxo. If i was to get called a poor mans civic. Wtf do people call me in a saxo when i get out in a suit....

If the increase in insurance wasnt so high i would get the type-r anyway.

[Karl]

Robb, Skoda is the same company as Audi.

the Fabia VRS is quick, good on fuel and handles well.

Admittedly the name Skoda has a bad rep from cars 10+ yrs ago though.


Edit: Leckie, go Diesel.

[leeroybrown]

Admittedly the name Skoda has a bad rep from cars 10+ yrs ago though

But who comes out top now...Skoda

And thats over Audi and VW

[Karl]

But who comes out top now...Skoda

And thats over Audi and VW

Yep Yep,

how much is a decent Fabia VRS to buy?

[Tupps]

Hardly you can pick up a MK1 VTS for cheaper that a MK2 furio

And insure it for less? Run it for less?

Sit in 1st gear all day for less?

Can also get a mk1 type R cheaper than a mk2 Sport?

[Jacko]

skodas are awesome cars...dont deserve any of the stick about being shit...

[Clouds_mate]

Hardly you can pick up a MK1 VTS for cheaper that a MK2 furio

You can get CTR cheaper then the Sport.


So does that mean its not a poor mans ctr?

[Japman]

My mate at the gym has a Type R,new one

Looks scary

[Clouds_mate]

Robb, Skoda is the same company as Audi.

the Fabia VRS is quick, good on fuel and handles well.

Edit: Leckie, go Diesel.

why go diesel? I only do about 30miles a week. lol

[leeroybrown]

Get a moped........beeeep beeeep

[Karl]

Why go diesel?
because then you can rock a VRS or a GT TDI, sitting in traffic and town runs will be cheap as chips too.

Plus you get performance on tap when/if you need it?

[Robb]

......and?

the fact they are the same company means nothing to me.

[Tupps]

Economical classy car ftw

Wether its a diesel, petrol, pedal power what ever

My 2 pence....if you like the look of the civic, get a sport and make it your own?

[Mystic]

I saw on the news that Skoda make their cars out of cake & bake them? Thats weird is it not? I'd take a tin can over a cake tbh :err:

[AdamW]

You can get CTR cheaper then the Sport.



Get a CTR then? if its cheaper....use the money you saved to buy a sport to cover insurance.

If you want a sport, get a sport.

Deleting your gamertag as we speak

[Clouds_mate]

As iv said 19 tmies. I dont care about running costs.

its the fact its 1k more just for the typer

[Karl]

......and?

the fact they are the same company means nothing to me.

...I dont understand whats up with a Fabia VRS, thats all?

[Clouds_mate]

I want a civic.

The thread is about a civic.

Would i be stupid to save 1k on insurance and get a smaller engine car and only sit in traffic and not really be able to use the engine no matter what size......

Price of coolness.

How much are you gonna spend on alloys for your sport / window tints etc. I dont know what the interior is like on the sport either? £1k dont seem so much after all that...

[CampDavid]

hahahahahaha.

what and a nice shiney skoda badge makes you king of the road?

i would honestly rather walk than drive a skoda. grow up, not everything is about how fast you can chuck something into a corner. loser.

Hahahaha, I didn't spot that you'd "traded up" to an A3. You'd rather walk than drive a skoda, but you'll happily pay hansomely for a 1.6 litre rebadged Skoda Octavia. I assume it's a 1.6? Nothing says I've made it in life like a slow arse German hatchback

[Jacko]

yea test drive will give you your answer imo..

[Karl]

As Mystic says, that does make perfect sense too.

[Clouds_mate]

I see what your all saying and its true what your and adam are saying and i agree.

If i could insurance at about 1.2k i would be happy to buy taht

[Tupps]

Campo's on his period?

[Robb]

Hahahaha, I didn't spot that you'd "traded up" to an A3. You'd rather walk than drive a skoda, but you'll happily pay hansomely for a 1.6 litre rebadged Skoda Octavia. I assume it's a 1.6? Nothing says I've made it in life like a slow arse German hatchback

hahahahaha. yep, ive made it. at 20 years old. hahahahahaha. fool.

you got me there. for a second car i dont think ive done too bad with an audi. spose i should be driving a track ridden VTS so that i impress the boys in the renault f1 car park?

are you serious?


leckie - get a CTR, if its only 1k difference you will probably spend at least half that on some decent wheels to be fair.

[GrantW]

Hahahaha, I didn't spot that you'd "traded up" to an A3. You'd rather walk than drive a skoda, but you'll happily pay hansomely for a 1.6 litre rebadged Skoda Octavia. I assume it's a 1.6? Nothing says I've made it in life like a slow arse German hatchback

A3 is a rebadged Octavia? Is the Octavia not a saloon thing?

I quite like Audi's tbh, but ive got nothing against Skoda's, heard they're great cars.

Leckie, why a Civic? Just wondering why you've chose that?

[Tupps]

Leckie...

get a type r or you suck dick

*baaaaah* Look at me im a sheep

[Clouds_mate]

Just like erm.....

Just thinking about it, 1700, then mods on top. looking at about 2k.

Lot of money to insure a car to go to work in, when i could just get the sport couple of £££ for some type-r alloys.

I dont know...

[Jacko]

A3's rock...although ive nothing against skoda id rather drive an audi...considering an A3 come january tbh...

[Tupps]

Test drive a few cars....

Check out the the pro's and cons - inc insurance, economy, comfort/extra's blah blah blah

Sit down and have a think about it

[Dan]

Leckie if you want a civic sport, buy one. I've driven a type r and they are nice to drive. They dont handle great but are a nice car. For what you need it for it would be an ok car.

[jaybiss]

do what you said to me the other day ;)

[Jackman]

Get a sport :y:

hhahahaah heroic avatar.


leckie is the overall difference 1k?

so basically car + insurance is only 1k different between the two?

dont really know the buying costs but if so get the CTR in my opinion.

[Clouds_mate]

[Danr]

Buy a golf tdi anni. Great miles per gallon. Can be rapid. Can get them at good prices.

I reckon if you have the sport people will always be trying to race you thinking it's a type r.

[CampDavid]

What's the budget Leckie and ins group?

Have you tried shopping around? I only paid 1099quid for my 306 Rallye with no NCB at 22. That was about grp 16 and modified

[Clouds_mate]

I would be willnig to spend about 8k on a car.

insurance up to about 1.2k.

Want something sporty looking, but not a saxo, 106 or cilo.

[CampDavid]

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/220980.htm

Insurence will be about 1200 through bell.co.uk

my dads got the 5 dorr 318 and its a nice car

its got enough poke to over take on the mway etc, its reliable, hes done over 70k with not a single problem

only thing is you have to really push the acellarator compared to the saxo where you poke it with your toe and its on the floor

[AdamW]

It was a jab back to the big belly comment earlier...

Just you wait.

Im going to verbally x-bully you

[Kelly]

What about...

An Alfa Romeo 156 with full leather interior? Pretty sure that will fall with in your budget and it's one lush car :p

[Clouds_mate]

might just sell the saxo. Leave the gym so dont need a car then buy a push iron and ride it to work...

Problem solved

[AdamW]

What the hell is a push iron?

[Barry123]

you only live two miles away from your new work.

[Karl]

Raleigh Burner, bike I learnt to wheelie on.

[Leo]

Aint read it all but eh.

I might be wrong but do you have a vtr? if so.. your fine and happy with a vtr when theres a vts... so im sure you will be fine and happy with the sport even knows theres a type r.


Some people dont mind some do, looks like you dont so go for it.

[Leo]

im the more stupid type who would happly pay the extra insurance even if i was strugging to do it, just to get the faster car. bad i know but i cant help it :( i know others are the same too , own up hehe

[Karl]

* My bad *

[Clouds_mate]

after thinking about it last night i did some more quotes. Test me when my insurnace runs out (hopefully 2years ncb) Insurance was around 1.1-1,2k for the civic type-r

[leeroybrown]

Who was that with?

[Clouds_mate]

that was with Bell.

[Karl]

Thats not too bad Leckie, did you use my tip?

[leeroybrown]

10 month or 12 month policy mate?

[Clouds_mate]

Thats not too bad Leckie, did you use my tip?

Yes, but i already had my mum on the policy. Didnt make much difference at all.

Guna have a bash at a few other quotes, with been 21 with 2years ncb. See what the crack is then with other motors.

[leeroybrown]

Should log onto the civic type r owners club mate

Am sure there is a section on insurance and recommended companies to go with

[Clouds_mate]

Been a member on there for about a year lol

[leeroybrown]

That makes 2 of us then lol

[Scattle]

Sky insurance or A plan are pretty decent for the Jap motors, if you want to give them a bash.

[Ruddy]

Not trying to put you off Leckie but I was round at O.H. (Borats) house last night and we was talking about type R's (over a game of Forza with a max power in the middle of the floor fosters cans and a curry) and just as he got rid of his he needed:

Service: £280
2 new tyres: £240
Tax: £110

And a few other things that I cant think of right now. You know me well enough to know im not saying this derogatory but can you really afford one? As in going out with mates etc and having a laugh as well? Cos he went off the radar when he had his. (£50 a week petrol getting to Rotherham and Back from Donny aswell, not including any other trips! :n:)

Plus you might have a hard time trying to shift it when you decide to sell up..

Although they sound fucking awesome! lol.

Donny must have the most expensive tyre and garage places in the whole of the UK

[Ruddy]

sp: WHOLE........

Anyway.....

Thats getting it done properly Leeeroy.

Bridgestone potenzas fitted at honda and a honda service by the way. Which is personally what id do if i had that car. Wouldnt want just another greasemonkey under my pride and joy I paid 10 grand for.

[leeroybrown]

Civic's can be good on fuel if they are kept out of the Vtec... which is probably impossible... we for me it would be

Owning a performance hot hatch comes with a cost..... not everything is cheap.....Wouldn't put me off buying one tbh

[Clouds_mate]

i think i would be able to afford one. I will have about 900 disposable income a month after paying my bills etc.

But no matter what car i buy im going to have to fork out more then what i do now, buy a german car, cost more in parts then french etc...


Dont wana be driving around in a saxo for the rest of my life lol just to have a bit of extra coin in the skyrocket.

Has to be a point when you want a nice car you have to bite the bullet.

25 - Will have a Subaru or Evo without a doubt lol

[AdamW]

30 - Porsche GT3 RS????

[Clouds_mate]

standard. sell my mums house, dont tell her. Buy a GT3RS.

'Time to move in a home mother'
'what about my house'
'dont worry, oh have i shown you my new car'
'how much did that cost?'
'your house, put that harness on, doesnt have seat belts'

[Scattle]

lol, that's the way it's got to be.

[Ruddy]

Know that feeling. I dont dislike my saxo as much as i used to. Its more to with them being a little unreliable. Not so much mine as touch wood ive never had anything major wrong with it. Just when something does break on it it makes you want to blow it up with a 125mm Field Artillery cannon.

Must admit though I let O.H. drive mine last night (Thats Borat to some :P) and it made me like it again as he showed it no respect for the first time in ages! lol. They are quite fun to drive and all that bollocks but I DEFINATLY want to get rid of mine and move up on the car market ladder lol.
