i like to collect old car magazines and particularly anything relating to hot hatches around the late 80's and 90's.
i was going through some of my mags today and came across the review for the ek9, as far as im aware this was the only uk magazine to review the type r ek9 and dont think there are many copies around so pretty rare.
This was published in 1998 so no evo magazine or anything like that then , this is the review you hear people talk about when it comes to the much debated 0-60 time, anyway thought it would be good for the resource area.
i have included the parts that are relevant to the 9 but left out the other hot hatches to keep the file size down.
seems they like the noise and the speed but didnt rate the handling that well as far as i can see , strange
