We've decided...

It'll still be faster than the Ka even if you never go over 4krpm ;-)

Have you actually found one then or?

No it doesn't.

HTH.

Sshhhh don't scare him away - he might actually end up with a good car for once ;-)

I'm not sure Steven will view that gen Accord as a 'good car'...

The Type R isn't that bad, I suppose... :D

Heh. But Dervy appears to be buying the Rover 600 shaped model.

OK as a 2.2VTEC, desperately dull as a 1.8 cooking model.

Don't ask me, I only listened to what Charlie is told. She doesn't consider anything that requires the electrical gremlins to be chased away with ritual chanting to be a proper engine.

Putting away an insult, Alfa's lovely 1.8 twin spark produces more power but less torque. There's also a BMW unit that's pokier than either.

The new one came out in 2003... the Type R was available in the model before.

I believe the one you were thinking of, i.e: a pre 1998 model, was non-VTEC.

-- JackH

Nope. It's the in-between model, the one that's neither the current generation nor the Rover 600 in drag.

It's a VTEC unit.

I said "944"; them's grunty.

Good car IMO, nothing exciting but there nice enough. anyone else wanna change there car to something SteveH hates a lot? this is getting quite fun :)

There's a lot of scope to be fair, on the basis that no one is, AFAIK planning on buying an Alfa or a Fiat any time soon, the chances are quite high that the next new motor to the group, Steve won't be a fan of :-) Hell, i'm thinking seriously about a 207 ;-)

I'm pretty sure he loves both of my cars. And I reckon he'd take either over an Alfa :)

What have you got at the moment? Volvo and Swift?

Aye. Both modified (i'm not sure whether I really belong in this group) :)

My car's modified.

It has an Ecotek fitted.

Why would you modify them and not just buy another car ;-) ?

Bank balance was suffering doing that, and finally found 2 cars I'm not getting bored with :) Talking of changing cars, my old ZX blew its head gasket last week. Ooops
