Hi from UK

[skywalker]

Hi my name is Luke and I live on the south coast of the UK , I was looking around at honda forums and saw this one so what the hell I thought I would sign up and say hello to everyone across the waters

I curently own an Accord which I hope you will like





Mods so far inc refurbished wheels by myself

Wind deflectors


This is my second ATR , the first one is here



Have also owned a civic 1.8vti hatch and aerodeck vti , both with standard 169bhp

Thats all for now , hope you enjoyed the pictures

Thank you

Its the 2.2 type r with 215 odd bhp with the H22A7 engine , LSD box , full recaro , ac , alarm , full electric windows all round .

Its handling is extremly good aswell as im sure you know , can be launched from 0-60mph in under 6 seconds

I again ask why the FUCK Honda does not give us Type R's and all the other goodies that Europe and japan get?

Seriously, they never will sell the Type R's in numbers anywhere, and there are just as many performance enthusiasts over here as over there.

Anyway, me ranting, Nice ATR. Rarely do you see one of thoes.

They are a rare one over here , they where all built in the UK so that probally has something to do with them not being over your way

I think at the current exchange rate aswell maybe a little to expensive for your market at $45'000 at least

Amen to that whats really going on with our shit over here. I guess somebodies making money over this kind of bullshit. I hope when they open up that new honda plant here in the US they might just well be some cars for us. Must be some boycott. or end up giving the bad ones to us.

Have you seen the Uk's new civic type r

You have a lot more aftermarket parts in the US and your prices are a hell of a lot better than the UK . Im talking about a decent exhaust for the ATR coming in at just under roughly £1000 and thats cat back and ds2500 pads at £120 Tire prices are stupid high at over £100 a piece and dont get me started on the petrol prices and everything else to run an accord type r in England . Petrol is sitting at roughly £1.15 a litre for 98RON and when you only get 300 miles to a tank it hurts .

But then vtec smacks you in the back
