Anyone know this car?

[Steve Burnett]

It just makes sense to me to pay £400 for a plane ticket to actually go over there,experience the buzz of having a choice of 12,000 motors

Id love to be able to do that. Being out in Japan and having access to loads of nice motors.  :mmmm

I believe that any comments made about any car for sale must carefully be assessed. The car is likely to be up to 14 years old and as many have been modified by previous owners to make them more suitable for their own use they may no longer be fit into the category of what a prospective buyer would want. I for instance have seen several 93 type R’s ranging from a street cruiser with everything highly polished (and yes I do mean everything!) to no holds bared single turbo track specials. The range of difference of apparently similar cars is so great there’s bound to be comments and opinions expressed that may unintentionally cause offence to the owners.

Now don’t laugh all you current owners, but as the relative price of these cars has come down things have got very tricky for us aspiring owners…………(waits patiently while the chuckles stop).

Ok I will explain. When the cars were more expensive an engine rebuild for instance would be a relatively small percentage of the whole value of the car, now it could easily be up to half its total value.
The same goes for the mods it’s got, or more likely the mods the new owner would want it to have.

It may seem that people like myself have got more fussy when trying to select a rex but its purely down to the huge range of  what we have to choose from and trying to find a car that fits as best as possible.

By the way if anyone can recommend an fd for up to £6500 mildly modded with a fresh engine please let me know.

I have one, look at my link.Running 300bhp at the fly and the more important mods already done (i.e. Apexi, decat, cat back etc) Also only got 10K miles on rebuilt engine.
Only thing is Im in Scotland and people are no prepared to travel.

that yellow one was a bargain. i considered it on the weekend but decided to go for the other one i am picking up this weekend. purely because i didnt want to go through the pain of putting a kit on and having it painted. otherwise a great car and great price from the ad i saw on autotrader

[sparticus]
