Civic 1.8 Type S

Hajo · 24th June 2007, 15:24

I recently purchased the new 3-doors version, the 1.8 Type S, including all options except satnav. Delivery between 9 and 12 July.

Here in Holland, the Type S already comes with lots of features but Honda also offers an "Advantage Package" which a.o. includes heated seats, dual zone airco, tweeters, cruise control, and rain- and light sensors.

HID lightning is extra and you can order it only in combination with this Advantage package.

Interesting to see how different the specs and add on packs are in different European countries!

In Sweden, we can´t get the Type S at all yet as far as I know.

GHGH · 24th June 2007, 18:21

Not in Norway either....

Sounds a bit like like the GT spec in the UK, but we don't even get the option of heated seats or HID lights

Congratulations and happy driving!

My garage told me the delivery time for my new Type S would be 3 weeks. I purchased my new Civic on 18 June and it still hasn't been delivered.

Hopefully next week, but even that isn't certain...

Hope you'll get it soon, Hajo !
Which color have you chosen ?

So, if I count correctly, there are (will be) three Dutch Type-S drivers on this board ?

Hajo · 16th July 2007, 11:53

Mine will be red: "milano red" as it's officially called.

Then we'll have the same car, except for the engine..

Mine is royal blue, special for the type S in holland. done about 3000 km so far. i have lower springs from MAD. still comfortable, 2,5 cm is enough

I also have the advantage pack with xenon lights.

1.8 or 2.2 engine ?

vteclover · 16th July 2007, 12:24

1.8 because i drive less than 25000 km a year, the price for me is to much to buy the diesel, although its a super engine too

the differnence in price is 5000 euro

Yes, that's a smart move. If you don't drive that much, the 1.8i is the good choice.

Hajo · 28th July 2007, 15:08

YES! I finally got mine! It's beautiful (red) and the driving experience is really awesome. It took me almost a day to study the manual and to programm the on board computer and audio-system as I want it.

FWH · 28th July 2007, 15:30

Lucky you!

Awaiting comment from CH on the red colour...
