I've driven both, i'd say the ctr is a nicer car, and would be nice to drive. But the 182 is more fun, and more torquey.

when you say you don't like the gear box do you mean where the gear shift is? Personally I found as soon as i drove it for more than a couple of minutes, you didn't notice that it was in a dodgy place .

Quite a tricky choice actually, both have advantages. I think i'd probably get the Civic though, cause they can look so cool done up!
