    Ben is tearing around the track so calmly just having a chat as if going to get groceries, whilst Freddy is holding on with a huge grin just trying to take in what is a dream.
    Rewatched that part a few times, living that experience through him.

      This is clearly the highlight of the video. Tuvarish can barely speak and he's just casually chatting on. Stig is obviously feeling out the limits of the car - not pushing by his respects and that is just jaw dropping to your average driver (even one who likes fixing cars and makes/watches youtube vids). Best part of the video and makes the whole thing (I mean the rest was OK but somewhat dribbly and drawn out as you would expect on a 2ndary channel).

    Ben Collins is such a humble guy, I've never seen him be anything other than modest when people talk about Top Gear, and I know (because I follow the series) that Ben was racing in the Praga Cup here in the UK for the last couple of years, which are essentially baby LM prototypes and he definitely still has his touch.
    Definitely looked like a bucket-list moment, looks like even the UK weather was kind to you, hope we get to see on these shores again, perhaps even for meet-ups events.

    • @wowdogeful
      @wowdogeful Год назад +11

      It gets a lot of hate because it's in many ways a worse car than its predecessor. The EP3 Type R had the same power, it weighs considerably less and it still has independent rear suspension while this one switched to torsion beam suspension to reduce costs. All the Type R models after that were heavier still, but they at least had the engine power to match and, while their design was in many ways questionable, the aero was very much functional.

    Man, how cool was that to have Ben drive your car! What a freaking day! Hanging with Mat and Alex just looked like it was going to be epic all around.

    Love the look on his face while in the car with The Stig. Pretty sure he just crossed off several bucket list items. Great Work Freddy!

    Tavarish this and Autoalex's companion video of y'all's day on track this is probably one of the coolest videos you've done and getting the Stig involved too freaking awesome

    I was completely blown away. In my country used Renaults are valued with scales, and used Hondas are valued like houses.

      UK has no export market to europe because it is RHD, Europe western cars get eaten by eastern Europe buyers. So higher demand

    I hope you brought this back to the states, and if you did you should do a build series on it. Even if it's something as simple as a fun daily driver with reliability and mild performance upgrades (i.e. oil cooler, intake system, full exhaust system, brake upgrade, suspension mods, security system, and etc.).

    Very happy you finally brought another civic, you definitely needed to buy a proper one and experience it. Civics are great cars!!! And you inspired me to build mine. Every time you came out with a new video I’m working on my civic and watching you at the same time. Just a vibe that all
    I love that type R btw that’s my favorite one. Period.

    Two years ago, I finally sold my BMW 1 with 217HP. And got my absolute dream car, this Type-R. With just 160000km on the counter. It's a car I'll drive to death. While taking good care of it.
    Mother used to have a Type S FN2. And I loved it, in fact I fell in love with the car when it was on Top Gear. And I just happened to accidentally stumble upon a Type R. Loved the car so much, it's easily dailiable, even though a bit rougher around the edges for that. But with an LSD it's one of the most enjoyable cars in the serpentines. Wouldn't trade it for anything.

    That’s great. The Stig is a hero of mine too. Having him drive your surprisingly good car, to the extreme and everything working well. What an amazing experience. You are going to have to import that car now.
