Honda Civic Type-R (01-05) - Review

Review by Parkers on
The Civic Type-R is one of the best hot hatches around, with an awesome engine and gearbox combination that gets better the harder and faster you drive it. It also offers a genuinely roomy body shape. This Honda offers something rare: a very reliable and exciting ownership prospect. The price has been kept at a very competitive level too making it all the more tempting.

Buying used

It is very well built but is the sort of car that inspires drivers to thrash it so check it over carefully. Prices are strong, but if you can get air con it's worth looking out for.

Selling

A popular buy so you shouldn't have any trouble selling it but make sure anyone test driving it has insurance covering your car.
