New Type R

[ets2k9]

Apologies if these have already been seen but there new to me so I thought i'd share it with you lot.

They seem to have toned it down abit from the original concept pics but I'm hoping the Type RR is going to be a full blown monster.

I'd still buy one though I'm just a few pennies short of the asking price.

[puzzledzippy]

iam planning on getting one of them as my next car once ive done my test,i can get insured on the current one for about £1300

[noxtioN]

Thought it was coming with standard 20" alloys and tinted out windows ?

[saxo_vtr1234]

very nice i think the boot with the spoller on there looks like a 206 or the new astra

how many tests have you had? as youve been learning for 4 years...

i like it, think it looks smart, still dont like the back ends of them tho they just look odd

[noxtioN]

Whats asking price now? Has it changed, or is it still the same ?

Looking at that pic I would rather have the older version CTR.

[Banger_VTR]

well ive had an accident (just get sum tissues)

[Curran]

i really dont like the look of them. the old model is soooo much better. they have ruined an excellent car imo

[Yates]

[ets2k9]

How the hell are you getting quotes for a car that not out with no licence, nevermind the £1300 a year quote?

[puzzledzippy]

how can you learn for 4 years and not have a test?!

dont ask,everyone is on at me now about doing it

[ets2k9]

There around 18k

[noxtioN]

Youve been learning for four years and you havent had a driving test yet ?

/lost

[landy]

looks really nice inside

[TU-Tuning]

Theyve got rid of the best bit imo the rims. Which is a shame. But hopefully as said the RR will be better. And the spoiler looks gay. still overall very sexy dont get me wrong but its not the same as the concept was

[saxodan]

Looks nice, i would have the yelllow version ;) lol

Like the little stubby gear knob, not found of the lights at all and apprtnly its a little slower on the 0-60 than the older model!

Think they have gone more for style than speed on this one

[Matt_e]

i saw a prototype of it at the london motor show

[ets2k9]

I know a few people who have seen them in the flesh and said they are gorgeous so look forward to seeing them on the road.

[Leo]

I dont like it i dont even like the other type r!!! i prefer the civic VTI loL!

[Curran]

heres a few pics of it in the flesh from the motor show this year.

sorry about the size of the pics

[ets2k9]

That looks alot better more aggressive.

[TU-Tuning]

Seeing it again i think 18's may be a better option, with low profiles, and then it can be lower. Because that looks really high. Still stunning tho

[Connor_scotland]

not to keen on that

bet she is a flyer tho

[kcsaxo]

nice, but i would go for this if it was sold here, we always get the shitty end of the deal:

[Yates]

[Connor_scotland]

http://www.maxrev.de/files/foto_dc501_183.jpg

i owuld rather this aswell

[bullit]

the pic in white looks he bollocks
matt the thread is about the type rr lol your right on them being charged though, thought it was supercharged though

[Craig]

the new type r's, are they vtec?

[Robb]

Looks good from the outside...

Dash and all those buttons look a bit gammy...

[vtrchris64]

That looks gorgeaus, a big improvement on the current one

[R4T]

thats sweet,prefer the old 1

[SaxOmniaC]

very nice i think the boot with the spoller on there looks like a 206

top picture, i thought the exactly the same

[kcsaxo]

yeah the dc5, its been reviewed and everything but why it hasnt made it across the pond i dont know.

[Craig]

surely u can get imports, seen a few flying round here

[noxtioN]

the new type r's, are they vtec?

Yes. :)

[noxtioN]

I have also seen that white one. They should have made them all like that!

[kcsaxo]

yeah theres imports, just cant be arsed finding parts if things go wrong as honda uk wont sell those bits. people have said finding parts are easy but im just lazy.

[kateandjohn]

I do like it but i prefer the old one and want one there great cars.

[Richmt11]

i used to prefer the old one but everytime i see the new one it grows on me! Loving it atm <3

[mark16v]

New type R looks well smart. Pity the production model is coming with smaller wheels. :homme: Toned down a touch from the prototype, should be a flyer anyway :wink:

[ets2k9]

You also get a flashing light which tells you the Vtec has kicked in which seems abit strange as its quite obvious when it kicks in.

these are the pics i seen of the type r. looks awesome with the tints and smoked lights and anthracite wheels etc with the yellow. the performance stats are rumoured to be the same as the last type r. so 197bhp standard = fookin rapid motor with looks to kill in my opinion.
has anyone sat inside the new civic's? stunning is the only word

sat in one at the showing they had when they first came out and the dash is all black and it bends around you. when you start the car all the dials appear in front of you, state of the art stuff.

love it

[noxtioN]

I think ill wait a bit before buying one now ...

[Certi]

It looks alright, I definetly preferred the concept with the 20" wheels though :P. If I remember rightly the price is around £16.5/17K.

If I was getting one I'd have it in white :drool:

[leminho]

it looks great

and she has some lovely standard seats

what do you people think?

[ets2k9]

The seats aren't a great deal different to the current ones but I agree they a damn nice I was trying to get a pair for the Saxo when it was in its stripped out stage.
