Well that time came to say goodbye to my trusty steed and welcome a new member of the household.

I have only done 30 miles so far but do have the w/e to go clock some more up

It's going to be hard getting used to the CTR because it's got so much more height in the seats than the S I feel like I'm looking down on everyone.

Just cant wait to get to the old 600 mile mark!!

Here are some pics of the new acquisition anyway!! (sorry for the picture quality but I was running out of daylight)

Difficult to feel too sorry for you Matt when you've got a new toy like that to play with! You can pick up the new TV yourself now too!

 

Sorted Matty, I'm sorry to see you get rid of the S but atleast your not driving that Focus you so wanted.......

See the similarities between the CTR and the Bread Van

Matty

 

If they did use the CTR for bread van's you'll be sure to get bread that is still warm!!!

Cedric- As for the TV thing, you could go and pick yourself up a 58 incher and bring it home the same day without losing the VTEC!!!!


Matt

 

Theres one of them around the corner from me.

Mint!

 

Nice one Matt; it looks the business!

Pete

 

Oh dear, my thoughts are with you.

 

OK - they are growing on me but lets face it...it ain't no supermodel is it !!

Not sure why you had to lose the S but I hope you have fun in the CTR...should go well just don't put it in for any beauty contests !

 

Look forward to comparing comments.
I had a Black CTR before my S.

Enjoy.

 

I enjoyed my test drive in the CTR and I'm looking forward to Matt's views when he's had time to assess it. I know exactly what he means about feeling high up in it though. I love the digital display in the S and one of the things I found with the CTR was that I seemed to be looking right down at the tacho and speedo, and apart from the greater head/eye movement involved, there's a definite delay in relating those needles to the numbers, compared to the instant info which is right in your line of view with the S.

Not a pretty car I must admit, but it's a great value for money performance package.
