I'm sure loads of you fine people own one of these cars (b16, 160bhp). What are they like to drive? I know all about the engine, but how do they handle? The youngest ones are now 10 years old, so how are they holding up? Do they feel old to drive? I'm not interested in hearing from people with 17 or 18" wheels, all they do is **** up the ride and handling. I love the look of these cars, but I may end up buying one of the newer (1999/2000) ones instead, simply because they're newer. I live in the uk where the weathers horrible at best so any info on how they're i the wet would be great to

cherubes!

 

Hi There. H had a 3dr hatchback vti rof about 4 years. Fantastic car. Handling is pretty good. I ran on 17's for the last 2 years. didn't really fu*k up the handling. Much prettier than the EK(96-00) IMO.
