About this car

This is the Limited Edition, the final send-off for the FK8 Civic Type R. Honda built only 100 for Europe, with 20 allocated to the UK, and this car is number 17 of those 20. It is finished in yellow and is right-hand drive.

The Limited Edition was lighter than the standard FK8 by 48kg, thanks to the removal of sound insulation and air-conditioning, and it adds forged wheels, Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tyres and revised suspension tuning aimed at track use. Power is 316 bhp from the turbocharged four-cylinder.

The odometer shows just 64 miles from its previous owner, so it is close to new. That makes it appealing either as a collectable or as a very fast car to use.

Performance

The maker’s official figures for this model, not measurements of this car (Honda UK/Europe press figures, 2020-21 (320 PS, 272 km/h). Only 0-100 km/h (5.8 s) was published, so 0-60 is left blank. Kerb weight is left blank because only the 47 kg saving versus the Type R GT is confirmed. Build numbers were announced by region (about 100 for Europe, 20 for the UK), with no single global total. The official record lap was at Suzuka, not the Nürburgring.).

Top speed: 169 mph
