Honda Integra Type-R 1.8 Type-R 2d (1997/R) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
A supercar for £10k... Value for money alright...
Costs
High insurance costs. Frequent servicing intervals, but the bills are low and the car is always in top form.

On the road
Driving
Track car handling and no soundproofing mean you live the touring car racer experience on every journey... on that long distance business trip or around the corner for milk.
Performance
Under six thousand revs, it's slow but with good economy. Over six, it's supercar fast with fuel consumption to match.
-
Living with it
Reliability
It's a company car and is driven hard and fast. 100% reliable... unbelievable.
Image
Clean lines and smart for meetings; race car dynamics at the track. Looks even better with a woman driving.
Comfort
The one star is for the fact that it has seats. Also zero is not an option.

Security and Service
Security
With a Thatcham alarm, it's no problem.
Service
Fast, efficient and polite. Ask for a test drive of the Civic Type-R when you are in for services.
