Easy.

had the Corsa coming on 2 years now, its boring me tbh and im tired of it. Was going to z20let.... Its just failed its MOT due to emissions being threw the roof. and i can no longer be arsed with the car. I may just sort the emissions and sell it.

Opinions on these:




Honest opinions only please!

Thanks.

too common find summet different

how old are you???

try insurance on a fto 2.0 mivec 200bhp standard

Vtec...




all that needs to be said

Firstly, yeah go Jap!

If you're in to the whole FWD thing then you'll not get much better than an EP3 Civic. Modding wise the sky's the limit; companies like Spoon, AEM, Buddy Club and Mugen make offer enough aftermarket parts to bankrupt you 3 times over

The rawer option would be a DC2 or DC5 Integra as they are more bias towards the stripped out lightweight racer type machine that the Type-R badge is supposed to represent, but the Civic is still a good car. I'll be honest, I don't get the big "V-tec" excitement where people suggest that your neck will snap like a twig and your bowels will empty through every available body cavity once it gets to 25,000 rpm or whatever it is but it's certainly a reliable system, and a lot more exciting than a Corsa.

EP3 is only Vtec ive been in, and its a really good system, as youve got econmy if you want it, 6gears with the EP3, and obviouslly wanna go fast, get it upto 5,000rpm or wherever.
