Autocar recently tested the fresh Civic Type R Mugen, an extreme one-off concept, and now we can bring you an exclusive video of the drive.
The car has been built to gauge public reaction to a hardcore Civic Type R and to aid Honda to determine whether to place it into limited-scale production.

This would boost public awareness of Mugen Euro, the semi-official tuning arm of Honda, and could signal the launch of more Mugen-branded tuning products and upgrades.
New mapping has increased the engine's rev limit to 8500rpm, with peak power of 237bhp at 8300, and Mugen has thrown 105kg out, by using composite body panels, ditching the rear seats, fitting fresh front seats and using lighter wheels.
