The Honda’s Civic Type R Small Edition has sold-out before even being proven to the public.

The automobile held this placement for just two years before becoming beaten by the Renault Megane RS Trophy-R by approximately four seconds.
Phil Webb, Head of Vehicles at Honda UK, is usually happy with how quickly buyers guaranteed their pre-orders: “Much like the previous era, we were expecting an enormous demand for the Civic Type R Small Edition. To have offered all 20 examples therefore quickly and before anyone offers even seen, aside from driven the automobile, is amazing and testament to the task carried out by the multiple-award earning Civic Type R.”
Honda could be gunning for Renault’s record with monitor performance being the main focus for the sold-out Limited Edition. The version will include a unique ‘Sun rays Yellow’ color, 20” BBS forged alloy tires, and a 47kg overall fat loss compared to the normal Type R.
