Sold my little old clio for something newer!

[Jordanb29]

So today I said goodbye to my much loved little clio. Was my first car and I'm genuinely sad to of seen it go. Had a good & bad time owning it but mainly good! It had just ticked onto 114,000miles and was getting on and cost me a fortune the past few months repairing it constantly so I decided to get something a bit newer with less miles.

The new car im getting is a 2004 Honda Civic 1.6 which has been made exterior wise to look like a type r. Its on 70,000 miles and has F/S/H. 5 Months Mot & 6 Months Tax.

Im picking it up on Tuesday and travelling a bit of a distance to get it but sure it will be worth it. I know its not to everyones taste but I like it and thats all that matters. But any ways here are a few pictures for now until I get it home:

What do you guys think??

Lovely upgrade mate I like it! Any plans?

You will love it im sure...

Im mainly just going to be keeping it clean, tidy and maintaining it. if funds will alloy me I may get the alloys done anthracite along with getting the silver roof back and I may think about getting a type r interior in the future as I love the seats. Will probably go a bit JDM mad at some point and get the JDM style tow hook for the rear and stuff like that but other than that I think it looks good as it is!

You will love it im sure...

Is there any forums for Civics at all dude? or could you recommend me any bulbs for it as i want to get it looking fresh. Such as numberplate bulbs and interior bulbs?

Looks decent... If you're trying to go full rep it's needs a red H badge.

Had one of these in the past. Nice cars, Not quick but a good all round way of moving people and things. Try epcivic.com for a good forum.

Please lower it. Ruined by the anti-stance.

May as well get some quattro badges too, while you're glueing lies to it.

This!! I wouldn't be doing anything to that until it was lowered. Looks like a suzuki SJ410.

I will be considering lowering it after winter when the weather gets better. Will keep it standard as the weathers getting worse tbh so may as well. But I agree it is a bit high!

End of the day, I like the car and it looks better as a Type-R Replica than a standard 1.6. Its not like i'm sticking the Type R stickers on the side skirts am I?

Ruined by the black roof!

Only a Carbon Wrap roof so I can always remove if I want to!

It's a nice little runabout, yes. I'd be happy to go to work and back in it.

Sod it, slap some V6 and Turbo badges on there too, it'll look soooooooooo much more OMGZ cool.

But it'll still be a shopping-edition civic with extra Tupperware.

 

[Advikaz]

Looks alright that mate.


Needs lowering on an urgent.

Sorry, not a halfrauds specialist like yourself.

It doesn't look like a Type R. Does look tidy enough though, just needs lowered a lot.
