Description
This 2008 Honda Civic Type S GT is a unique and head-turning example, finished in striking Lamborghini Arancio Argos paint. The car benefits from a stylish Maxton Bodykit (RRP 462), a colour-matched Type-R spoiler, and rare Type-R GP Pack components, including the front splitter and rear bumper. Its front fascia has been completely refreshed with replaced headlights and fog lights. While the car has a few minor age-related marks and two small dents on the passenger side (courtesy of an errant moped), it remains in outstanding condition for its 16 years. Mechanically, the car has a long MOT and is equipped with recently replaced front tyres, alongside rear tyres with plenty of life left. Both sets are cross-climate, ensuring reliable performance in rain or snow. Brembo discs and pads were fitted around 10,000 miles ago, providing superb braking power. The engine is responsive and engaging, making it a fun diesel "diet hot hatch" that connects the driver seamlessly with the road. Servicing has been meticulously handled by myself and my dad. The oil, brakes, oil filter, air filter, and pollen filter were all changed last year at 113,000 miles, and the air conditioning was re-gassed this summer. Additionally, the alternator and battery were replaced in November 2022. A Haynes manual will be included with the purchase of the car for the future owner. The car is relatively easy to work on. Earlier in 2022, the car was involved in a non-fault accident with repairs completed to a high standard by Southway Garages. Inside, the car is equally impressive. A fully integrated Pioneer touchscreen system with Apple CarPlay enhances the driving experience, complemented by upgraded Alpine speakers and tweeters. The stereo is fine-tuned with an Auto EQ mic for optimal sound quality. Dual-zone climate control, heated mirrors, and a rear defroster add further comfort and convenience.Additionally, a micro USB cable has been seamlessly wired into the car, ready for a dash cam to be fitted, ensuring added convenience for any future installations. Overall, this is a well-maintained, distinctive Honda Civic that combines standout looks, practicality, and a great driving experience. I'm sad to see it go but ULEZ charged have become too much to accommodate for. Next MOT due 21/09/2025, Part service history, Orange, 5+ owners, £2,750
