The 330d on the way up was interesting




tbh it doesnt feel like it lacks torque. Definatly got more then the 1.6 corsa so I am happy Quick good handing out the box car is what I wanted and thats what I got


I think that 330d gets daily abuse judging by the smoke it gave off


Fad do you know if rob still comes on here? Was going to ask him about my car.

There was a mint cosmic grey one at a dealer near me. He would have let me have it for 8k

54 plate
24k miles
full honda history
fully speced AC fogs etc
really nice condition


So for a privete sale I would be looking around 7.5k at the most.


Mine was less as its got 60k but its a honda so should be good for many more

Those wheels are horrid tbf.

A CTR should be kept standard-looking as most ones you see are modded in some way, and look the worse for it.

Agrred with Moe the above one is seriously gash!

I know you are dead pleased with yours but if you ever get bored I can get in touch with someone who will take you out in their supercharged one

Also Gav I briefly spoke to Rob yesterday on your behalf and he is a bit tied up with work but he said he'll let me know when he gets his new rota when he can fit you in
