The largest Civic Type R club forum

Established in 2002 it brings together people from all over the world to discuss their one love of Type R's.

We all move on at some point, get some help from our members on what to buy next. Usually a monster V8 or second hand Lambo will suffice but usually the three letters M P S will be muttered......standard!

Should be worth it and it will be nice to see pictures of the finished article

FYI - on one of the forums I am on quite a few people have found that they end up with more toys and higher spec as by the time their car comes to build time their original order cannot be fulfilled - VAG only go up spec in this case and not down :)
Damn, shouldn't have added almost everything at point of order then.

Still there's a few things that would be nice if they added for free...!!!!!

Not just VAG, it happens with them all. The cars are built in date segments and if the parts aren't available for a date segment they'll simply upgrade the part.

Happened to a friend in Germany with his E Class.

He's just sold his Ep3 to buy that too :lol:
Owns brand new £40k BMW and an EP3. Standard.
You forgot his M3

My M3 did it in 4.8 but who cares!

I was just having an "oh you can read the brochure" moment when the OP stated the 0-60 time of the SQ5.
Hmm well since the BM which is a diesel is used as a daily and the Ep3 sits in the garage most of the week as a weekend toy?

The M3 has gone mate!!!

I can even post a few pics with me willy waving if you would like?

Going through this thread you can really see the fukcing idiots doing their thing.

Seems a lot to spend on that car, but as you say you can afford it and the second hand market isn't at a value that creates that much of a saving.

Seems you have thought it through and have got what you want from a car, so good buy.
