Mine’s on cup suspension and H&R springs and 19’s. Firm but not ridiculous.
The main firmness is due to the 19’s. On the lookout for done 18” cup wheels so I’ll have a better idea then but the 19’ tyres are like rubber bands.
Clutch is very light. A lot of people mention it’s maybe too light.
Insurance is aware so you now have to declare for 5 years. My premiums went up on both cars (policyholder and second driver) after my non fault. Think the system stinks TBH.
There were no options on wheels. Just silver.
The vents were always body coloured.
The seats were an option to have half alcatara/ leather and the lux pack 1 or 2 differed by solely a sat nav vs Sony DAB.
I was prepared to travel to Cumbria or Middlesbrough to buy a car in the last few weeks/ days.
Doesn’t bother me if I’ve got all the answers to questions before I travel and the seller’s genuine... but there lies the issue. I’m on the south coast too so 6 hours on a train and similar drive back.
Yeah. I was surprised. I thought it would be a car people rave about but never actually buy as it hasn’t got the brand power of others.
That said, I did come away wanting to distance myself from the Ford and Vauxhall brigade.
That was the latest shape Corsa VXR in blue. Proper chav. I did notice a lot of Ford and Vauxhall owners with those type of chavy lights. Even focus RS MK3’s with them.
He’s an accountant. Maybe he’s seen that a used is a better proposition if the initial depreciation is high.
That’s also the reason I don’t believe he’d buy the I30N.
Also, perhaps there’s a wait for the new car or it’s stopped production.
The irony is Ricardos in shoreham did a lot of the R@D on this car and issues were found with the engine that were still present when the press had their cars so it appears it was rushed in to production.
All the wings, belts and spoilers on the CTR are functional. There is thought Honda is doing a dumbed down version as it splits so much opinion. A little less in your face for the expense of less overall performance.
Could be a good decision.
Without knowing the full ins and outs, but if you can get your money back or at least sell on for good money, I would advise doing so.
These now have a bad rep for problems and the resale values will plummet far beyond normal expectations, particularly when out of warranty.
Get shot now and...
