Ive just ordered mine, infact its meant to be here within a week.

Went for Silverstone, think it should be easiest to sell on, if a bit middle of the road. I personally reckon red, yellow, green and the lighter blue(nurburgring?) would be harder to sell on. They are more of an aquired taste(and the red is solid not metallic ofcourse)

Can anyone tell me where they got their exhausts from?? whats the cost and who fitted it?? I fancy a mugen

I`d lodge a complaint with your plate vendor. They`ve spaced it incorrectly.

Tell them it should read R7 YPR.

Welcome!.

All colours are cool (except lime green). Black is nice but needs to be kept clean (judging by your CTR piccies you're on to that already!).

Lots of people on the board have aftermarket exhausts and alloys so I'm sure they'll advise (I don't....I just dream!). Regarding the exhaust....what is it you are after?. Looks and/or performance and/or noise?. If it's noise then a cheaper alternative is to go down the cold air intake route (eg. PRM). I have this and for a few hundred quid it makes a hell of a noise!!!.

Hi Taz, I used to live in Rayleigh, Burrows way, then went to Thundersley, Sandown Road. The Crown was my local Haunt and we used to go up to Crocs to do some Head banging. My sister is still around there and I get back down 2/3 times a year. Good luck with the S get a red one look far better than these common colours.

Red with HKS exhaust and 18" Oz Superleggeras. It looks like Norton Way Honda in Letchworth have a Nurb. 03 on the salesroom floor - there might be some negotiating room available on this considering the season & new model.
