General my new ABARTH

[Tris Harris]

Really STFU now, no one gives a fcuk. New type R is underpowered, too heavy and crap. Esseesse would pwn one in a straight line, in bends anywhere you wanted to try it. As i have said many a time, we get you think its overprice but fvck off shoving it down our throats as no one gives a flying fvck. It doesnt matter how many times you repeat it its not gonna make any difference.

exactly, plus those rage alloys aren't even that nice, i'd have the 18" anthracites over them anyday.

Jassy, Since when did you become mr know it all, the new Honda Civic looks like it fell out of the arse of the StarShip Enterprise... The Abarth looks are alot better than the Civic.

:yeahthat: and the new type r is gash as well as the fact you bought a gutless piece of ping pong trash er i mean a honda.

if you love your civic so much then drop your trousers stick it in the exhaust pipe and enjoy yourself

abarth is just not worth the money in any financial climate.the gp abarth is old hat.it auditioned 2 years this february.there must be a huge hanger stacked with them coz they aint dicounting them??? or are they????????.i am a proud owner of a brand new honda civic type r gt with optional 19 inch polished rage alloys.PRICE.......£18,000. A BARGAIN list price is over £20k.faster and out handles any essesse and loads more respect than any punto.but that aside my main point get a abarth discounted £12k a bargain great little car.the abarth is in NO MANS LAND IN THE HOT HATCH MARKET.GO FOR THE ESSESSE at £16+ its in big brother land and stands no chance.

your still at it. Buying a NEW SHAPE Civic type R prooves you know f**k all about cars and thus made that whole statement null and void .

I really woudn't call the new CTR a hot hatch tbh a corsa vxr would pwn it despite its horrible handleing characteristics..

 

[abarth_178]

I believe the GP Abarth is selling very well across Europe actually, I agree they missed the ideal time to launch the car UK which was probably should of been about a year earlier, but I doubt they have high expectations of massive amount of sales now anyway, and from the Abarth dealer I spoke to they were pretty happy with the amount they were selling.

On the other not wishing to argue, but Honda are not exactly doing that well, they've closed down their factory in Swindon for 2 months and have rented a massive airfield to stock pile the cars that aren't selling.

We all know the the newer 'beam axle' Type R is not a patch to drive compared to the old one, which has made it less desirable to driving enthusiasts.

But no one would slagging of a car you bought, if you weren't consistently bashing people for buying a Abarth is if their stupid.

 

[Venters]

Sorry people but the Type R is faster than the Abarth Esse Esse.
Autozeitung test track for instance the Type R did 1:51.0
the Abarth did 1:51.8

but then whats the price difference and whats the better looking car and whats the best driving car? Kinda makes the .8 of a second seem kinda irrelevant don't it? :chin:

Obviously not driving it hard enough . And that is the new CTR not the old one yea?

Even if it is I think its quite impressive seen as though the essesse is down on power by 20ish BHP

 

[Venters]

Yep the new one. The old one is obviously faster. Probably because it's not a pile of poo like the new one.

 

[punto_matt]

Pay £300 for the tuning box for the SS which gives it 210 bhp and say byeee to my type R

If you had a set of balls, you would of bought an FD2 Civic Type R. The current UK spec car is complete crap and you are a nob for shelling out £18K for one. That is unless you are just some teenager dreaming in your bedroom.:tosser:

Jassyo, I really dont understand why you come back here to wind up other GP owners. If your happy with your honda then fine but if you continue making a nusicence of yourself in my section then I will take action.

Remember, we go to other car forums aswell and know how dissapointed you were with the honda...'straight line speed and power', ring any bells?

What happened to the corsa VXR you only bought a few months ago that was supposed be a lot better than the GPS?
