Me mrs went in to dealer today to look at getting a new car on finance so i test drove an 08 plate civic type r while i was there as ive never been in one. Now finding myself wanting a set of type r front seats to retrofit to the prelude

they are are so supportive. As for the performance of the type r, i was completely shocked how underpowered it felt. I know they are heavy things but my 5th gen h22a8 feels so much more responsive. Although they are nice to drive and they have folding rear seats, i think its put me off newer cars for now. Long live the prelude!

F-Type

Jaguar must've been all out of originality when they designed that.
