I too miss driving my 307 - just like I miss headaches, toothache et al - and I am happy to say that I can drive the Civic like I drove my old GTi, so I can revert to my old style, which suits my age I guess.
Ah well im just on a downer I guess, I am getting a long list of things to be looked at and its a pain in the neck arranging a courtesy car with the insurance etc so I can't be bothered. I have to concentrate on pulling away and changing gear (changing gear should just be a reaction that you do without giving it a second thought) if I don't think about it the gears slip in to the wrong place, and the stiffness is definately straining my elbow!!! It seems that I either over rev or under rev on pulling away now - I am beginning to feel like a new driver and seeing that I have been driving for 23 years its just a tad annoying!
