Al Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 Cupra Rs start from around £8K but are not going to be the better ones.The Civic type Rs are fairly economical, reliable(cough) , fun cars and can be had from £7K.A friend of mine picked up a 2002 silver one with coilovers, HKS induction,Blitz exhaust and 47K, perfect condition never had paint for £7.5K.

M4TT Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 (edited) they are nice cars simon, i have used my father-in-laws one a few times, they are a bit harsh on suspension if your in th back and the seats are crap when you are letting people in the back as they reset them selfs so your driving position is moved, love the gear stick were it is, just a bit cold in the winter, but wev'e not had any problems with it at all. they make a good wedding car!!
