    Yes they are quick (165 - 170 bhp)about same as SIR civic's and they are Jap so yes they are reliable.


    You could also look at Saxo VTS they are only 120bhp but with mani, induction kit, decat & exhaust they get about 140- 145 bhp and with higher torque and lighter they'll give any SIR or Mivec a run for their money. Also they are cheaper to insure and a sleeper at lights

    Mivecs generally rate around 150bhp to 160bhp standard on rollers

    There black listed the same as Civic Sir's , insurance will be expensive on them as well as they are an import and for some reason insurance companies are hell bent on not insuring imports.

    Saxo VTS would definitely be a good alternative, not as fast but there good cars, nippy, great handling and as lil-evil said they've potential.
