Little bit about the car.

I got the car in December '07 and loved it as soon as I picked it up. The previous owner was getting on a bit and wanted to let the car go to someone who would take care of her. I got it for £1K less then the best offer as he trusted me in looking after her. I put my parts on her from previous Civics and it has pretty much stayed that way. It gets regular cleans, polished once a week pretty much, as I cant stand a filthy car!! It runs fine and I was planning on keeping her, but I found an EM1 which suits my needs and ticks off a few of my boxes. I got quotes for an Auto to Manual conversion and Jerry at PerformanceTek quoted me around £600 for a 'drive in' 'drive out' conversion. Being a firefighter on retained and wholetime I just dont have the time to leave the car with them for 2 weeks.

The bad bits.

I am a fussy guy when it comes to cars, when people say mint I expect off the forecourt, brand new looking! So if I sound a bit OTT you know why. Right, here we go....

* Front bumper and the bonnet has some stone chips as expected.
* Side skits are the same in places.
* Rear bumper has a mark dead centre in the middle.
* As said before mirrors could do with a touch up.
* The windscreen has gone a little white along the bottom of the seal, which is due to a build up of moisture, but most insurance companies will replace these depending on your cover.
* Interior is fantastic, front seats have been sat in so not as tight as the rears, but no need for any work in there.

Thats about it for now so here are some pictures....











Please be aware I am NOT selling the car with the wheels or lug nuts. These will be finding their way onto my EM1.

Price.

I would be looking for £2,500 as it is, which is a fair price on condition, what I paid and the current market, however, I am open to all offers as long as they are sensible!

Any other questions please ask away guys, I have nothing to hide and I've been around on here long enough for most of you to know that

Thank you.

Now on Flea bay - Item number: 320368094939

Good luck with the sale worth every penny imo

nice car its a shame this wont be showing on our stand
so whats next on the list then??
cant wait to see what you do with this next one!

About to pick up a mint VSM EM1 coupe. Bar the leather interior, this new coupe will have a B16, it will be manual, it wont have a spoiler and once the lip on the front has been touched up it will be mint. It will pretty much mean that I get the ideal Coupe I want, without spending a lot of money.

For now it will get the usual, import plates, exhaust system, my Schmidts and slammed on its arse with coilovers.
