HONDA CIVIC
Hatchback 2.0 i-VTEC Type R GT (2009/09)
With us now at RFH Classics we are pleased to offer this very well cared for 2009 (09) Honda Civic 2.0 I-VTEC Type-R Hatch that has just arrived in part exchange. The Type R has to be one of today’s modern classic hot hatch’s and is a car that continues to grow in popularity, particularly when in such an original and unmodified condition.
This example has had just 3 owners from new and covered a very low 47,504 miles which is supported by a comprehensive service history along with the original Honda book packs and two original keys. It has to be noted from the overall condition of the car and looking at the service history this car has been clearly looked after properly throughout its life.
Finished in stunning Crystal Black Pearl, the paint presents well with a deep shine and, as is typical with this colour, shows a subtle blue hue in the sunlight really bringing the cars paint to life. The bodywork is clean and remains rust free, the car sits on refurbished Alloy wheels fitted Goodyear tyres that have been replaced recently helping to give it a sharp and correct stance. The car benefits from being ULEZ Free.
Inside, the Alcantara sports interior is in excellent condition with no wear to the traditional problem areas on the front seat side bolsters again helping to confirm the mileage. The interior has that unique and original Type-R feel with the Aluminium gear knob, Red carpets, Two tone Red/Black seat covering centred around the driver-focused layout of the dash. Other benefits include factory spec Air conditioning, Electric front windows, Remote central locking and the Premium audio system.
Under the bonnet the engine bay is clean and tidy and houses the 2.0 VTEC engine that pulls strongly and smoothly being paired with the 6 speed manual gearbox that feels tight and precise. On the road the car drives exactly as expected, responsive, direct and confidence inspiring. The rocker cover has been refinished in the correct ‘crackle red’ finish, addressing a common cosmetic issue and presenting as it should. Overall, this is a genuine, well maintained example of the FN2 Type-R that has not been modified or abused, something that is becoming increasingly important as these cars move further into modern classic territory.
