Type R Diesel?
Posted on October 31, 2007, by Darren, under Cars, Honda, Technology.
Looks like the Honda Civic Type R could be in line for the Japanese manufacturers’ 2.2-liter diesel engine within the next few years, according to Autocar.
With the oil burner churning out 320 lb/ft of torque in comparison to 142 in the current 2.0-liter petrol spec car, the diesel could (read: should) be significantly faster both top-end and through the power bands.
Powerful, stupidly fast and economical?

Honda Civic Type R
Posted on February 25, 2006, by Darren, under Cars, World/Web News.
They said it was dead – they said no more ‘Type R’ Civics would ever be made…
But, ladies and gentlemen – It’s back from the dead in its new 2006 3-door body shell form. These are the first shots of the new 2007 Honda Civic Type R.
Wow.
As if the standard version didn’t look good enough (well – the European version anyway), this thing is awesome. Anyone who says Honda is dull, boring and only make cars for old people, well, I’ll let the pictures do the talking 
What’s also amazing is that they are talking about doing a ‘Type RR’ – an idea borrowed from the motorbike division, featuring lightweight carbon fibre-bodied versions of the Type R’s. Can’t wait for the shots of those!
“When is it out?” I hear you scream (or is that just in my head?)… early 2007 is the answer. More details will tip up during the Geneva Motor show taking place next week.

Another Civic movie
Posted on February 19, 2006, by Darren, under Cars, World/Web News.
The ‘Lost in Space’ guys have produced a brilliant short movie for the launch of the new Honda Civic here in Europe.
Around 2 minutes long, the movie sees the car in some surreal poses and angles. It’s not quite as good as the UK advert that’s currently running – but still excellent.
Take a look at the short : Lost in Space ‘Honda Civic’ movie.
