I share the CTR with my old man, he uses it at weekends and I use it during the week to save mileage on Evo. CTR is a very capable car, I can only assume most people on here haven't driven one..

nik.. exactly what i think, ctr is fantastic car on the straights and round corners, + add a simple BMC CDA it's fantastic, great noise but more importantly definate feel of improved torque and more responsiveness, i can't fault the car except for it's steering which is VERY light.
my girl has one so i drive it a fair amount! great car.

No he shares the CTR with his dad 
I like them alot, never having driven one I can't comment on the way they drive but I love them, been out in a teg type r and was very impressed, I'd by a few year old teg type r and save a few quid if it were my money

It's in his name so yes it's technically his. Insurance isn't too bad anyway..
..Gibbs steering is fairly light yeah, doesn't really bother me tbh though!

with performance handling cars though u don't expect the turning circle to be good, my rx7 was terrible.. but then again all i did was drop the clutch slightly and i'd be facing the correct way in 1 turn

very skippy suspension, its hard like most sporty cars, (it's still hard and skippy which IMHO is a bad point)
looks like an MPV, perhaps (it does)
lots seem to be driven by tossers. perhaps (yes not all are )
I suggest you go for a test drive and consider other cars

Yep, your probably right...too young to have taste, and too young to afford a decent car that can go round corners

And u drive what exactly?? Wanker

IMO they aint a bad motor but you can get a whole load more car for the money....tuned gtiR would be cheaper to buy and would waste a CTR no worries
