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.

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