Honda Civic Type-R review - verdict

Honda Civic 2.0 i-VTEC Type R

Test Date 31 January 2007  Price When New £19,000



Verdict

 7 stars out of 10

On the right road, when you’re in the mood, there’s much to like about the latest Civic Type R. Once you’re rowing through the gears and listening to that remarkable engine, you’d forgive it a lot. But this is still a disappointing car overall, with a chassis that is exposed by the retrograde rear suspension. Like the manic Astra VXR, the Type R will have its fans, but we aren’t among them.
