Honda Civic Type-R (2017 - 2022) Type R GT 320PS VTEC Turbo 5d Owner Review

It’s as good to drive as the reviews. Amazing power and grip, excellent handling, best gear change of any car I’ve owned. Loads of room, 2 seat belts in the back a bit daft. Great boot space much bigger than other hot hatch’s very practical. The front seats are very comfortable and plenty of room in the back. Rides well in comfort mode, sport mode good for normal driving. Remarkably civilised in town visibility ok in-spite of the spoiler. Apple CarPlay works well, the multimedia is fine, good that it has a proper volume control. Fuel economy around 30 mpg. But for performance on offer worth it. Driving position is excellent. To drive few cars under 50k will match it, limited slip diff is very good and you can really attack corners, brakes are very strong. Continental tyres grippy, but I’m not expecting along life. Got a great deal less than £300 per month with metallic and a 5 year service plan. Tried a GTi and a Golf R but in reality a golf r is a good 5K+ more and needs a roof box if you have kids. A long wait if you want the blue colour. I love the distinctive looks it’s looks like a transformer said a friends son. I’ve owned many sports cars and in terms of practicality, performance and value it the best car I’ve ever owned, love it.
