not really; start out with something cheaper, then it would be a good time to get one because your insurance will have gone down. also it's a bit chavvy

if you can afford that as a first car you are very lucky!















it depends on your age as if under 25 the insurance would be expensive and difficult to get otherwise I see no issue.































My first car was 22 years old! and a rust bucket. think how lucky you are and perhaps it might be better to start with a cheaper car and save for a home (its a very good time to buy now) and get a better car once you have more experience and get better insurance deals.

No, it would not.















The type R has the Honda racing class engine. Although not as powerful as a racing car, it is more powerful than your ordinary everyday driving car.































As a first car, this car could be too much for a new driver to handle, as well as too tempting to burn it up down the high street and risk losing your licence, hitting a pedestrian or worse!































Honda Civic is a decent car, but the type-R is just too much power for a new driver.
