Wife's new Type R

[Chris V6 255]

Here's a few pic's of the wife's run around.
Was gettin abit fed up with gettin sub 20mpg out of the STi so went for somethin alittle cheaper to run for a year or so.

Final edition with tinted rear windows, Recaro's & Momo steering wheel.
First impressions are good so far

Yeah it is mint for a 5 year old car!!! Interior is like new & no carpark dings or scratches at all.
Looks newer than my 9 month old focus LOL

The only one i'd own mate asides a JDJM model, such a stunning colour and fantastic spec.

Really nice.

Cheers Guys,

It was the only colour & spec combo I would have considered TBH
Shame the 182 Trophy was abit too small otherwise I would have probably gone for one of them instead.
Hopefully will be back in renaultsport ownership next year with another Vee!

I had the same car a few years back...Great gearbox and engine. Shame it sounded like a hair dryer but my previous car to that was an R32!

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

I like that alot, as Kevin says, best option aside from the JDM variant EP3

Yeah I know what u mean, that is one of the minus points.
Especially after coming from a vee & Forester STi it does sound abit like a Vespa LOL

Air box and it'll be sound once hitting vtec. Just don't expect much better mpg than you were getting if you do.

 

[Ben.]

want!

 

[Bodge!]

Best colour. End.

I wanted one before I purchased my Corolla.
