I know the facelift is a CAT D and i've tried contacting the seller but no answer so far.

Out of the 3 adverts I say The Imola Orange one is the best and very clean too!

All I can say is keep looking, get online early in the morning and be prepared to drop everything and get to the car with cash in your pocket I was first to reply to the advert for mine at about 6.45am by the time he'd replied to me he'd already had four more enquiries (alegedly) but the price was very keen.

The orange one has a dent in the sill and other issues as pointed out above. I have seen a really nice 02 in nurburgring blue with 28k on for 6250. Only snag is its a jersey car so will cost to get it to mainland. Not sure what other costs will be associated with it. Bet it's never hit vtec.

Looks good to me, seems pretty genuine and very popular colour combo with hard top. I'm not sure you got the "Electronic Stability Program" (VSA in Honda speak) until the drive by wire '06 cars (high road tax). The carpet is looking a bit shaggy on the crossmember too so price in some nice long floor mats

That looks a bit too cheap to me, surely that should be £500-£1k dearer, caveat emptor
