Type R vs Type S

I traded in a rival hot hatch for a type s due to general running costs. 200bhp at your foot is great fun but the cost of petrol a week and the price of insurance and tax left me asking if it was really worth it. In the end i decided it wasnt. If petrol was cheaper would we all be driving type rs just now?

correct ! , the Type S is a good compromise however I do feel that the interior of the Type s "GT" model could be improved a little as standard by Honda. They could have live'nd up the GT model a little more with better seats and things like a gear stick gaiter .........I mean c'mon . I do love the car though i'ts just silly that we need to splash out a few quid here and there for silly mods like that........hey ho !
