Hi guys. Just joined the forum and it looks mint!
I had one of the first 225's back in 2004 and only kept it for 4 months.
I got rid because I needed to buy my wife a car and tbh there were a few issues with the 225 that irritated me.
I got a 1 year old Type-R but thats due for a change and for all the cars in my price range the 225 is now the best value by far.
so, can u guys with later versions, particularly CUP's let me know if the following issues are resolved:-
1) the steering, particularly at speed, was too light and "remote"
2) the brakes "grabbed" too much, not gradual at all
3) the gearchange from 2nd to 3rd often missed with 5th selected.
I would love another 225, they feel quicker than the 6.5 secs they posed to have and tbh mine felt sub the 6.0secs that owners clain to have. But the above issue did take the shine off ownership and i would be grateful for your comments
