2010 Honda Civic Type-R Mugen 200

HONDA ANNOUNCES LIMITED EDITION CIVIC TYPE R MUGEN 200

An enhanced, limited edition Civic Type R featuring exclusive MÚGEN equipment will go on sale through Honda dealers in the ÚK in April.
Inspired by MÚGEN Euro's high-performance Type R (http://bit.ly/aHEGpd), the MÚGEN 200 is fitted with unique body parts, wheels and badges to give it stand-out looks. As its name suggests, only 200 of the special Type R models will be made.




* Exclusive MÚGEN front and rear bumpers with skirts
* 19-inch alloy wheels in 'Lightning' design
* MÚGEN rear badge
* MÚGEN Limited Edition number plaque
* Limited Slip Differential
* Championship White exterior paint
* Gloss black door mirrors

A range of tuning parts, to further enhance the chassis dynamics of the Type R, will also be available as dealer fit options.



This limited edition Type R continues the association between Honda (ÚK) and MÚGEN Euro – the Northampton-based subsidiary of Honda's long standing tuning partner MÚGEN. Last year, MÚGEN used its 36 years of experience and engineering expertise gained at the forefront of global motorsport, to further develop the Type R, and create the Civic Type R MÚGEN of which just 20 units will be made.

Original MÚGEN tuning parts available
From April, a network of Honda dealers will also offer an exclusive range of original MÚGEN tuning parts for Type R owners to use to modify their own cars – both used and new. These parts will be available to buy from a number of selected dealers across the ÚK, and will offer a range of tuning and cosmetic parts, including sports suspension upgrades, lightweight wheels and interior trim. A list of the MÚGEN partner dealerships will soon be available at www.honda.co.uk

BTCC team launched
The limited edition car also celebrates the launch of Honda's BTCC team for 2010, continuing its long-standing relationship with Team Dynamics. The team will compete in two Civics – which will feature a similar White and Black colour scheme to the MÚGEN 200 cars. More details will be announced before the first race of the season, which is at Thruxton on 4 April.
