More Exclusive than a Porsche - Page 2

Type S Bournemouth · 13th September 2007, 14:20

Hate to say it but down here in Bournemouth Civics are 2 a penny. Alright im a bus driver so out on the roads all day but see loads. Even quite a few Type R's appearing now

DeanFYoung · 13th September 2007, 14:49

Over the last few days, during my drive to and from work I've been looking for Civic's and I've seen a total of 9, I've also been counting the number of Porsches (any Porsche) and I've counted 11, out of this 11 there was only a single 911 (Carrera S4 cabriolet (very nice!)), 3 Cayennes and 7 Boxsters. Bear in mind the Boxster has been out a good few years now (as M4rky pointed out) - getting 'cheap' on the used market...
Two of the Civics I see everyday, they park in the same car park as me (2 x Red Type R's) - I'm planning on parking next to them when mine arrives!
I'm also going to give them each a Civinfo Flyer!

It's true when I posted this, that I was counting all Porsches, but they were mostly the Boxster, and a couple of 911s. Still have trouble thinking of the Cayenne as a Porsche.
Saying that, I did start noticing a load of the old style Civic on the road as soon as we got ours.

I live just outside Cardiff, and I have to say that in Cardiff you don't see that many and out in the Burbs where I live, you don't see any.!.

I kind of like that though. Much better than having a Ford Clitoris or something else that appeals so much to the masses. Nice to know that some of us choose not to follow the herd.

I have to ask: What is a Ford Clitoris? Do you have pictures?

I'm seeing lots of Civic's around Birmingham and Solihull these days - it's a really bizarre demographic too because you never know whether it will be a granny or a boy racer behind the wheel!

I'm loving mine to bits - only disadvantage is keeping the black cloth interior clean!

FWH · 13th October 2007, 16:00

In the Stockholm suburbs you see a few - more in the city.

Out in the countryside though - none..

Woette · 13th October 2007, 19:35

Its the same in Belgium, i hardly ever see a civic. I have seen 3 of them since i bought my car a couple of weeks ago. But me likez

it gives me a feeling of exclusivity.

MateK · 14th October 2007, 11:13

In Poland I have seen lots of Civic's but only few Type-R and Type-S. I have heard that more than 50% of owners are females

I saw quite a few down in the Zdunska Wola area, perhaps there is a good dealer around there?

I live in one of the biggest cities in Poland ( and fast becoming one of the richest too!!!) and I have seen about 5. Like I have said I see Audi's, BMW's and so on but Civic's not so often.

I was told that they are too expensive for a small car! - granted this person was driving an Audi A6 so I guess the civic is small

MateK · 14th October 2007, 20:28

I live in Cracow but I am also quite often a guest in Warsaw. Both are big cities in Poland. On the other hand when you have one the same model is bringing your attention easily.
