Cheers for all the replies. I have a few things that I'm thinking of doing, I think a decent induction kit firstly and then see what happens. I'm happy with the stance at the moment. There are hundreds of nasty speed humps around where I live so not too keen to get it lowered at the mo. I'm going to get it fully detailed before we go to Le Mans Classics this year and then do some bits and bobs to it when I come back. The car has been debadged on the wings and I'm in two minds wether to put them back on. My wife likes them off, but I prefer them on. Honda quoted me £95 for the emblems for both sides .

Yes it was Silverlink.

They had a 2006 model in with 34K on it which I had a look at in Sunderland. It had red leather interior and the same colour. It was a dog so I walked away. To be fair they had just got it in, but I think it has sat somewhere for a very long time as there was green scum all over the car, rust under the bonnet. There ws too much wrong with it, so I walked away. The price differnece of the two cars wasn't massive either but the condition of both cars was chalk and cheese. I'm very anal when it comes to the condition of my cars and was over the moon when I saw the one I bought. Also got a 2yr Honda warrantly, road tax and money off, happy days. I'd looked at a few private cars with more mileage, older and just as expensive, so I'm a very happy bunny

I had been looking on the Honda site for months and knew that it had been for sale a while and that it had originally been up for £13.950. So I knew it had been up for a while and they would be up for a bit negociation. Can't wait for the weekend.
