Be rude not to go if there's a spot of champers going round. I've already had my third 18th birthday.
I've had the Type R for over three months now and thought I'd share my thoughts on ownership and life with V-tec. Also a chance to show loads of pics and some minor mods that I have made.
I started out looking at a Golf Mk V GTI and the salesman convinced me to try the Civic as well when he...
Cheers for the comments. Great pics Andy. Was a great route and tested the mettle of man and machine. Not only were the views amazing but the soundtrack we put down was amazing. Apart from Oli's squealing like a pig brakes and Chris' imploding exhaust baffles rattle.
Just got back from a great weekend visiting the greatest driving roads in Wales with some great mates. Thanks Tim. and Sharky for preparing the routes and to Cub and Christopher. for their great company. It began with the four of us heading to Llangollen on Friday night for the staging post for...
I got an invite but had a works do to attend which was probably not as epic as a Nandos meet. Sam it looks better than you described it. Just got to bring it up to CS spec. Thought you would have posted a picture of Fletch's climbing frame Chris. Otherwise the usual suspects looking good.
Hopefully we'll get some good pics this weekend. Oh just remembered we are in Wales its bound to rain then. Never mind some good beading shots would look good.
I have just got onto S Level and the game has changed. Tyre strategy is annoying and its easier to drive Suzuka in the wet on race tyres than intermediates and full wets. As said AI cars take no prisoners and once you leave the track you've lost the race. Apart from that it is just as addictive...
Re: 'Cub's Trackday Flamer - Cage etc'
Was a great day and although my mechanical skills stretched as far as cleaning the air filter it was great to lend a hand. Only ended up cooking the burgers because I built the tiny bbq. Looking forward to Wales and seeing the flamer in its natural...
Re: The 9th, and LAST Surrey Rolling Road : £30! : Saturday 8th February 9am
Jon thanks a lot for the usual well organised day. It was great meeting the usual suspects and some new ones. Happy with my 202.4, anything over book is always welcome.
This is now up for sale as he has gone soft and bought a Golf estate.

Great choice. Loved mine and it wasn't shy on track either. I changed springs for Spax units and fitted Koni Srs shockers which got rid of the horrible bouncy ride that comes as standard. Also changed the exhaust centre section for a straight through pipe which gave it a nice rasp. Was a great...
Finally after three weeks of ownership I have managed to spend some time not driving in the rain and doing some tidying and cleaning. Have to say I have grown addicted to the vtec noise. The car has a loud exhaust and it just goes ballistic when its on vtec. Have also discovered some extras on...
I'm so glad you reminded of the joys of growing old, cheap insurance, not paying for hair products or hair cuts, concessionary prices at museums and free werthers.
Phoned LV this morning to swap insurance over.
The woman said "Has it got a tracker?"
Me "I don't know"
LV woman "We can't cover it for theft if it hasn't got a tracker fitted"
Me, "This is a second hand Honda Civic not a Porsche or expensive supercar"
LV woman, "I'm sorry that is what we...
Cheers for all the positive comments. Really looking forward to picking it up tomorrow. The mirrors more than compensate for the lack of rear view from the back window. My son's coming round tomorrow night to teach me how to use the sat nav and telephone connection and every other bit of...
Those people who know me knew I have been looking for a new car to replace the Panda and also my Ph1 which I recently sold. Could no longer justify having two cars and wanted something different from a Renault. Have spent the last month looking at a number of options and wanted something mint...
Looked at one on Saturday but walked away as it had been re-painted badly on one side, the bottom pulley was squealing, had four mis-matched tyres, needed new brake discs and pads, a cambelt and was leaking at the bottom of the windscreen. Call me fussy but they wouldn't accept my offer of £1500...
