What did you do to your Type R today?

Sold mine today. Its been a very pleasurable 6 months and I've now scratched the FK8 itch. I wasn't intending to sell it but I was offered £500 less than I paid for it 6 months ago (and 6000 miles later) so it seemed a no brainer with car prices artificially inflated at the moment. Im going to sit tight and see how things play out once people start getting made redundant and start returning their PCP mobiles.

Mine has just gone to wbac too. Thought the offer was too good to be true.. went down and it wasn’t .. it was needing new rear tyres soon and I was actually booked in for them at £450 a pair.

Sold the car for £900 less than I paid for it in November last year.

I did just under 5k miles in that time and had no other costs other than petrol and insurance / tax.

Will be listing a few bits for sale soon ..

Anything lined up to replace it?

So my WBAC offer has gone up by 700 quid, very tempted to get shot. I've no idea how it's actually gone up 2 weeks on and increasing the mileage accordingly.

I've got a final job interview on Tuesday so that should sway me either way depending on how that goes. Was expecting an offer this week but apparently 1 more stage to go.

However I've got the car booked in to get my custom system taken off on Thursday next week regardless.

Over £800 inc vat new, asking for £500. No daft offers please. It's definitely on the louder side but does sound great!

They go straight to British car auctions. Apparently crying out for them ... never been a better time to sell.
 
Yeah I knew the went to BCA. Took my corsa VXR there years back but didn't end up selling through them.

Crazy really I rang a local performance specialist and I've had another conversation with the car buying group. Both told me they can't understand it get up to WBAC as soon as I put the phone down. Strange times!

future classic?, maybe seen as one of last of the truly great petrol only hatchbacks before everything ends up electric?

Dotty - you getting a Limited Edition in Yellow ? :lol:
 
Fan - you'll be pleased to hear there's a rumour (from in-the-know Jason :lol:) Honda are rumoured to be at the Ring ready to wipe the smile off Renault's face.

I'm there next weekend (in the Lotus this time), will keep you all briefed if I see a yellow FK8 milling about :)

cheers, yes, I did see that on his feed. I gotta say, I am skeptical they will beat the standard models time, let alone the renault. Lot more scrutiny on this one being a production model.

Sorry to see you lot selling up, but completely understand, if your in that position and good money is offered youd be mad not to.

I am trying to get mine in for remap but its getting impossible. Paul not answering, dream not answering.... I was even tempted to get the superchips man come to my drive for 360 and 500 nm for £499....

Yep told you the prices were crazy. The one I sold nearly 2 weeks ago hasn’t yet popped up for sale. Maybe WBAC know something we don’t. Will there not be a UK facelift R?
