Used cars: how to buy a second-hand Honda Civic Type R (2007-2010)

Ben Barry, 20 March 2012 09:00

If you're looking for an all-round hot hatch, the Civic Type R isn't for you: it's an all-or-nothing hot hatch. The ride is hard and spikey, the naturally aspirated 2.0-litre 16-valver is low on torque and, really, it doesn't do the daily drive stuff anywhere near as completely as a Golf GTI or Focus ST. But work the Type R ...

Honda Civic 2.2 i-DTEC (2012) CAR Review

Tim Kendall (photography by George F Williams), 23 December 2011 06:00

Swindon’s most famous export (aside from Billie Piper) has had a re-boot. The all-new, ninth-generation Honda Civic will go on sale in January 2012, and gently evolves the space-age Civic of 2006 – itself a radical departure from the safe, blue-rinse optimised Civics of old. First impressions count, and oddly some of the most memorable design flourishes which gave the ...

Honda Civic 1.8 iVTEC EX-GT (2011) CAR review

3.5

Anthony ffrench-Constant, 02 November 2011 10:00

Honda is nothing if not attentive to its customers. This, allied to bullet-proof build quality, metronomic reliability and ironclad residuals, explains why so many of them keep coming back for more. So it’s hardly surprising that it was to its customers that Honda turned first when hatching this new, ninth generation Civic. Five areas were identified for attention: the ‘polarising’ ...

Honda Civic Si 5dr (2010) CAR review

2.5

Ben Pulman (photography by Paul Barshon), 17 June 2010 06:00

Back in 2006 the conservative Civic was relaunched as a futuristic-looking hatch. But the past four years have helped mellow the sci-fi looks, so to jazz things up Honda has launched an Si-spec Civic. Essentially the Si kit is just a trim level – there are no chassis tweaks, and the kit is available with all the current engine and ...

Honda Civic Type R Mugen (2010) CAR review

3.5

Ben Pulman, 21 October 2009 10:00

The Honda Civic Type R Mugen is going into production. Yes, it might have been the worst kept secret in the world, but now Honda and Mugen have officially announced that they will produce a limited number of tuned and tweaked Euro-spec Civic Type Rs for the UK. Just 20 will be made, each will cost £38,599, and if you ...

Honda Civic Type R Mugen concept (2009) CAR review

Chris Chilton (photography by Mark Fagelson), 18 September 2009 09:29

Who’s Mugen? I thought the Civic was made by Honda...Mugen is a tuning company and engine builder that specialises in Honda cars and bikes. Although it’s technically independent from Honda, the company was set up by a son of Soichiro Honda himself – and has done everything from bodykits for the Jazz to F1 engines. And now the European arm ...

Honda S2000 Edition 100 (2009) CAR review

Mark Walton, 30 March 2009 12:00

To mark the end of its S2000 roadster after a decade of production, Honda UK is selling just 100 examples of this special run-out model, all in Grand Prix White with special graphite alloys, a red leather interior, and a serial number on the kick plate. But ten years on, can the S2000 still cut the mustard? Has it really ...

Honda Civic Type R LSD (2009) CAR review

Ben Barry, 30 December 2008 09:00

We like the Civic Type R here at CAR. Really like it. But there’s always been one thing that’s bothered us: the colour choices. Let me explain. The brilliant driver’s car that was the ’90s Integra Type R wore an iconic white colour scheme. When Honda farewelled the NSX with a Type R special edition? Also white. Even the last ...

Honda Civic Type-R long-term test review

the CAR road test team, 25 September 2008 12:00

Long-term test goodbye, 20 October 2008. Twelve months ago RO57 JJV turned up looking like it had arrived from another planet. Three-door Civics were (and still are) a rare sight, and matched to a lustrous ‘Milano’ red paint our Type-R attracted attention like no other hot-hatch. However, judging from the comments below, not all have fallen for the Civic’s styling like us… After ...

Honda Jazz 1.4 ES i-SHIFT (2008) CAR review

Ben Pulman, 02 September 2008 09:00

The arrival of a new Honda Jazz means an old folks' favourite is back. Bigger inside and more versatile than any other rival, the outgoing Jazz was a runaway success with retired types. The new car is longer, wider and more spacious than ever, and offers up all-new engines and a new gearbox, plus a hybrid version is coming. But ...
