I've not driven the Clio but, I have with the Civic.
I really enjoyed it.
Simple fun with a nice free revving engine.
Handling was pin point but, lacked steering feel. The power steering was a bit too light for my liking.
Cosmic grey would be my choice

Champ white is a good colour but youve got to have the jdm interior.

Both are very good fun cars out the box
End of the day drive both and go with what you prefer. I drove one of each back to back on the same day to make up my mind
Pretty much sums it up.
Do you recall a certain leisurely drive to Folkstone that one time.....

In general? Utter nonsense.
JDM Type R is the one to go for More power and LSD for a start!

If youre looking to spend 6-9k then go for the DC5 imo.

If you want a JDM ep3 or a DC5 be prepared for higher insurance... when I was looking at my ep3 I think the JDM ep3's were insurance group 20
Seemed a bit much at the time considering they only have 212bhp (15bhp more than a UKDM) and a diff!

Dont forget the insurance groups have changed, so the 182 is now group 31

Dont think its made insurance worse though.
Iirc the ek9 is the same group as the dc5 unless this has changed with the new groups.
