Look, I agree........VTEC engines are stunning. I was doing all of that WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY back in 1995/6. People laughed at us then........"how big is the engine? eh.....1.6? you are clearly a poof sir" lol.

However, as has been mentioned, VTEC's are a wee bit, well.....tiring.

I only went for bonk because its safe (relatively), handles like a go kart and is very unassuming being silver.

Its just working out quite a bit more expensive than i had liked.



In my opinion, and dont get me wrong....I FCUKING hate French cars.....but Reno are the only people producing anything remotely hot and hatch in the same vein as the originals. Proper fast, awesome handling and affordable.....well, compared to the competition.



I used to be a big BIG Honda fanboy, not the cheese fest that you see driving about now........it had to be standard, unmolested and pure.

BUT, Honda have seriously lost the plot........they are not Honda any more. At all.
