I took a test drive in the Honda Civic Type R to contemplate whether this could have been a choice for me over my Ford Focus RS.

While I'm currently taking part in the Mille Miglia in Italy, I wanted to publish some videos that were never released, including this with the Civic Type R. During the stop in Auckland, New Zealand I visited Honda Cars NZ to take it out for a drive to see what it's like.

First up we can take a walkaround to explore the exterior before jumping inside for a quick look ahead of taking it out, in what turned out to be pretty horrific traffic for the afternoon. On return it's a better play with everything inside and the displays, and some final thoughts about the main question.

Thanks for watching, Tim
