Cl9 vs 9th Gen civic hatch

[pilotb777_300]

Hey guys as the title suggestes, been looking at getting a new/second hand car for a while now and had my heart set on a type r civic. Went and had a look at a few and there's no way I'm gonna get my kids in and out of the back through the 2 door. Just too draining ! So am gonna spend a little less money and have settled on either a 9th Gen civic vti-s hatch manual or a Cl9 lux manual. Any thoughts ? For 10 grand the euro feels like a much better buy but wife has the cu2 and fuel consumption in traffic is hopeless ! Does anyone have any views thoughts on these 2 cars ? Which one is the better buy for the same price

Thanks

Get the Euro,it's a way better car in every respect.
You won't regret it.

Euros are a great car.
Ive had hot hatches before and you arent left feeling like you are in a boat in comparison.
Also so much more room and convenience in a euro vs civic hatch.

How come you note poor fuel consumption in traffic? they are a fairly economical car... what consumption are you getting?
