A friend of mine has a 2 door one in black they are 140bhp and handle really well, very reliable, he's never had any trouble, would be much nicer drive than the hyundai. And not too bad on juice too, go for it.

Depending on your driving style, and if you can stretch your budget & willing to pay a little more on insurance or even come down a year or two, you could potentially get better MPG from the Type R.

I know someone with a type s accord, same sorta situation, insurance on a Euro R would've only been an extra €100 a year and there's lads getting better mileage in their euro r than he is in his type s.

It's the same when looking at buying a WRX, if you can stretch your budget to an STI you get far more goodies and insurance (sometimes) isn't a massive amount more than what the WRX is.
