Some of you may know I was dodging about in a 2005 1.8 Civic that's good points were that it was free and has heated seats. But it was a shed and when the abs pump failed my bro was keen to get shot before it was only worth scrap.
He's away with work for the next few months but very kindly bought another car for me to use until he gets home.
It doesn't have heated seats and is slightly smaller but is subjectively and objectively better in every single way!
Anyway, enough rambling. Pics from Arnold Clark.
Day of collection
But just cos it's not mine doesn't mean I can leave it alone. So quickly debadged it, polished the exhaust and painted the white tow hook black as well as adding some silvervisions I had lying around anyway
So far, the first 400 miles has really impressed me, 140bhp, 180 lbft, 50mpg is easy. Accelerates really nicely for what it is.
