  1. 2 month warranty is irrelevant, the SOGA overrides anything there so you have 6 mths where the dealer has to prove the car was fine before you bought it, not you having to prove something broke. Haggle down as far as you can, take the spare cash and put it into a rainy day fund. Even £1K should cover most things going pop, this side of a complete engine failure which is hideously unlikely. These are very reliable cars, we don't really get any big issues on them. It handles like any FR car does in winter, i.e. not very well unless the driver drives to the conditions. Some will insist you must put winter tyres on or you'll die, others (like me) just slow down a bit and understand that crap weather isn't the time to be hooning. It'll be fine though, just use your head and you'll be okay. Unless you mean how does the physically survive when parked outside in the winter, in which case it'll be absolutely fine. This is no longer the 1970s, we don't have to worry about cars rusting away underneath us any more
  2. FTFY
  3. Sorry, are you suggesting someone has designed either the front or the rear end at all? Intentionally? It just looks to me like someone's taken a parts catalogue and thrown it all together to me. Still, that seat looks good at least. Having said that, Civics never were pretty cars. Hey, I was trying to be polite Tbh, I think it's a nice thing that they let the care in the community experience kids have a go at designing these things.
  4. Well said Jerrick. Not all suspension works for every driver, even if it is technically superior. That Meister R suspension components can even come close to a massive manufacturer like Bilstein is a huge achievement in itself: To surpass their performance on track (if they do!) is massive. As Jerrick says, a lot of this is subjective anyway, but this is still an entertaining and worthwhile thread.
  5. That really is a design shambles. Did the guys designing the front not speak to the guys designing the back? Or were they having a competition to see who could fit the most angles on the car?

    Over fenders

    Grundy is pro-fenders. It's me that thinks they look like tacky stuck on chav that
  7. Don't decorate until you've run a load of Cat5e to every room in the house.
  8. Looks good for a test fit, now all you need to do is take it off and put it on straight.
  9. Ah, I see you fell for that too.
  10. Thank god it's not just me
  11. Just a thought, and a bit late now, but next time just haggle the cost of three services from the price and go elsewhere. Or don't give them your money in the first place
  12. It's not the Zed that'll be going, it's any chance of his winky still being in use 12mths after the wedding Either sneakytimes will be off the menu, or the pain you'll have to go through via chores & nagging won't make it worth it. amirite or wot
  13. Isn't it? You got a service, for free (or at least not that you'd notice since it was included in the cost of the car). That sounds like a result to me.
  14. I don't like silver cars. I really, really like this car.
  15. Would you like a cuddle tonight?
  16. FK1000P. There is nothing that will do the job better for less.
  17. I'm going to start a GB on a new chassis, just in case someone should ever scratch theirs. Can't be be too careful!
  18. Waxaddict is their new thing by the looks of it, same idea but more monies.
  19. <---- Nope!
  20. Yup, sounds like a proper car now I need to do a proper vid, actually...

  22. It's not too late to claim you were drunk.
