Great car, not as raw as EP3 civic type r but your getting old too like me so probably don't want rawness any more,

They are great bang for your buck, imo.

Just check insurance, I looked for a quote on one last year , I was 40 , full no claims etc and they wanted 990 Euro for full comp, more expensive than an impreza sti to insure.

Lastly have dealt with that garage before, fine for getting parts but would not leave a car with them so check history on it,

Best of luck????
 
I have it at a decent price. It has a full main dealer service history and the previous owner is very well know on the car scene.

Insurance is the biggest thing and it has a knock affects like resale value which is hugely reduced if it can’t be insured it’s why most type r are track cars now . Great car just have it shocking when it comes to insurance on them

Ya the front end paint work isnt great but it's an easy fix. It's immaculate inside and outside other than that and mechanically it's like a new car

Knew I seen the reg somewhere now it rings a bell

There a vid of him removing the stickers, long with the paint too
 
We're all entitled to our opinions ...but not here to get personal or slander some one that isn't here to defend themselves. Let's keep to the point of the car.

Surely a new age wrx would be same for running costs etc? Upto you if course though, that's a nice civic though they're cool. Whoever previous owners are on a car can't be helped and I personally wouldn't give a shite once it wasn't a pikey I was buying it off

Good luck with the search anyways
 
My car is/was daily and the only bang is coming from the exhaust :54:
About the civic, you want to buy a car from an enthusiast, as you know it would be well looked after. But lm sorry its still infront of my eyes how he went about takinh a decals with powerwasher and end up taking the paint off. He found it hilarious. My question would be was he going about maintaining and servicing in the same fashion?

In this case go for it. Why are you hesitating? Did you check insurance quotes as seems like this is an issue with them?
