My S2000 is almost 10 years old but it’s going nowhere, it comes alive at 6k rpm up to 9 an a bit, get her hot then make her scream.

It is certainly different. I'm half/half with the alloys, I don't like the body wide rear light bar, but the rest of the car looks pretty good to be honest.

The Civic Type R Sport Line is no doubt a very good car but I really couldn’t live with the looks and the ‘Halfrauds body kit’ styling. Just my opinion though.......
I agree, its great for 17 year old chavs, but to my eyes its a dogs dinner. Even the normal Civic is chavtastic enough. Seems to be a Japanese trend, some new Toyotas look like Picasso designed them.

The New Cupra is OK looking, but yeah, its like a focus and a mk3 had a baby.

You will be able to extend your lease if you speak to finance. Let them know you are staying in brand and have a car on order.[/QUOTE

Oddly enough VW finance have been on today asking if I was going to sign up for new deal. Explained that would happy to do so if they could give me prices and more specification info. Oh and any "offers" :)

Looks like a focus St! Doesn’t stand out for me in a crowd anymore.

Eh.....Mk3 is the ultimate sleeper. Totally unnoticeable. I love mine, just don't recognise that it would stand out ANYWHERE!. The Mk4 looks much more special to me, regardless of any potential similarities with a Focus (I don't see those either, but still).

Ok here is a side profile comparison between the MK3 and MK4 - I've also photoshopped the ST's wheels on the 5 door PHEV so you can see what the Petrol 5 door will look like.
