Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The HONDA CIVIC (2009-12) 3DR HATCHBACK 2.0 I-VTEC 201 TYPE R MUGEN 6SPD is a three-door petrol hot hatch: a sportier, more focused version of Honda’s practical Civic. In the UK market it sits among performance hatchbacks, offering everyday hatchback usability with a distinctive, enthusiast-friendly character and bold road presence.
Best suited to keen drivers, couples or small households, it works for commuting and weekend trips, though its firm, sporty feel and three-door access are less convenient for family duty. mycarcheck.com records 383 look-ups across 102 VINs; checked examples averaged 79,000 miles and about £6,400 in private-sale value, on average.
The Mugen treatment gives this Civic visual presence, while the lively 2.0-litre engine and six-speed manual make it engaging on country roads. Compared with rivals such as the Ford Focus ST, it feels more distinctive and less common; expect performance-focused running costs, and check condition and service history before buying.
