I've done the 2.35 cdb thing... very expensive £££££ lol... But great fun...
Don't sound like a cheap route back then... lol
I'll keep saving for a couple of years I think...

They look like Work Emotion's to me. V. nice wheels!

adam knight- As I've said before, I'd keep the C West front bumper, I like it cos its different and the chances of ever seeing another type r with the same bumper are very slim! Don't follow the crowd with a V5-6 front end!

Was imported new. Guess the dealer took the easy option and fitted UK spec lights rather than bolt a fog lamp under the bumper. I think it suits them anyway

makes me wonder why i cant sell my Type R looking at all these people who have just bought one

The silver one looks identical to mine apart from the wheels i fitted a later bumper,headlights and grille to mine to bring the front more up to date The silver type r has to be one of the rarest colours and the best looking iMO (apart from the crystal grey ones)
