I feel...

    Happy to share my experiences, overall brilliant car. Managed 6k miles, took it around Europe, Nurburgring, trackday, b roads you name it in the short period I owned it. I’ll write up my thoughts when I get a spare 30 minutes, but in summary best Honda car I have owned and arguably best Honda...

    FK8 Front number plate black plastic mount removal ?

    You will need to remove the bumper to get rid of the plate holder, the holes are inline with the fixings, I suspect with a smaller plate the edges might be on show.

    You did well to get a February order, must have put a deposit down very early. I wanted I4 and quite late to put deposit down so looking at Q3 2024!!

    FL5 New Civic Type R

    I’d be wary or bank on values of FK8 or FL5 will hold, we are very early into the worst financial period in my lifetime (47 yo btw). Genuinely believe the car market is going to take a bath next year. Don’t know if anyone has tried to get a new mortgage rate yet but mine will increase more than...

    FL5 New Civic Type R

    Wow, all manufacturers are having challenges, you wonder whether these shortfalls have caused them to go to companies who aren’t tried and tested and as such finding issues causing delays. remarkable it is nearly mid November and nothing on the Honda front. Worrying if you want a new decent...

    FL5 New Civic Type R

    My Emira is now due February 2024, so I think I’m pleased I didn’t pull my deposit on the basis the Civic will arrive. My dealer said he had more than 15, I’m thinking of taking my car if I get one (number 1 slot) keeping until Emira arrives and sell on if so few are coming in doubt I’ll lose...
