Had my 2.2 Type S for approx 5 weeks and its the best move I've made.Brilliant looks,handling and the car feels quicker off the mark/mid range too.

I chose the Type S (not GT) simply because I did'nt want the glass roof again.Hav'nt driven the petrol (although have had a previous gen.ivtec type S),and for me its no question,the diesel every time.For anyone who does'nt need 5 doors,the 2.2 Type S is the one I'd definitelty recommend.
hi there

...any particular reason for not wanting the glass roof again?
just curious. ive got deep bronze type S GT arriving with me (hopefully!) in a couple of days - and sitting here withe civinfo sticker and nuthin to stick it on!!!!!
after my better half got her 207 with panoramic glass roof, thought it'd suit the civic as i did feel quite closed in when in the car on test drive (at least, compared to C4 coupe im driving at the moment - which has no sunroof, but loads of light gets in all round anyway) cheers
