Default I want to find an ORIGINAL HONDA CIVIC TYPE-R....HELP!!!

I think it the civic from 1996....

white, with red interior....the original type-R that first came out...

1) anyone have any decent photos?
2) anyone know the going rate for a mint one?
3) anyone know where i can find one?

& 4) I heard a rumour that a few were produced using the 2.2i honda VTEC engine....is this true?!?! if so...how rare are these babies??

CHEERS!!

its either this or the skyline at the mo

Really sensible car!

Rare as rocking horse shit, so command a high premium from those in the know.

No resale market at all, and no dealer in the country will recognise the car for any parts/fault finding.

Sounds like a plan.............. should go well with your replica Series 1

Teg is probably a better option, but the early Civic is a cool car.

They are 1.6 not 2.2 though AFAIK
