Now if these are just scare tactics they worked with me, as I can not afford to mess around with such a large outlay of money.

that'll be those Civics coming from that well known Honda plant in Outer Mongolia then, specced for the small Pacific island with no roads...
I'm sorry, but this sort of thing
really gets my goat. (Not aimed at you Kerry, aimed at the reps
)
Whilst it
may be true of some, less scrupulous traders, one of the divisions in the company where I work sells car over the 'net.
Unfortunately (before anyone asks!), even at staff discounts, I would only get under £400 off list price for Civics
And £0 off a Type R
What I
can confirm though, is that 'we' source
all 'our' cars direct from the manufacturers, and to UK spec.
