Not so good bits;

Side skirts still have cracks in the front and rear of them, this has been like this since I bought the car and have never gotten round to changing them.

There are a few minor scratches on the front bumper (one is about 2cm long and 0.5cm high and the other is very small) there is also a very minor scuff on the rear bumper. There is a patch of clear coat flaking on the front bumper, this is not bad and would disappear with a very good polish (I've had no time to do this I'm afraid).

There is a also a very small dent on the O/S front wing which is not overly noticeable and can only be seen well at certain angles, the paint has been chipped down to the primer but has not been broken properly.

The last thing is that on a couple of occasions (and it's only been a couple) I've noticed the thrust bearing squeal when pulling away, it doesn't do it in any other gear and hasn't done it for a while so it could just have been me leaving my foot resting on the pedal or something and heating it up but it doesn't seem to be affecting anything else, other than that the clutch feel is perfect and there are no problems with any gears etc so everything is smooth with no crunches etc.

I've loved this car and always looked after it (small scratches aside, *Never trust the missus with your car!!!) and it's certainly been a lot of fun. The handling is amazing and the VTec is strong in all gears. Exhaust note is fantastic with the Honda access system.

As I need to get something cheap and diesel and I'm aware it's not a great time to sell the car I think I'm putting this at a very good price considering it's condition & spec so I hope someone will be interested.

Price: £2800

Any questions please PM or Email me (More Pics on request)

Cheers

P.S. Sorry to recreate your ad from when I bought the car Sha but I'm not good at writing this stuff so it's good to have a template!!

Isn't Sha wanting this back?

Someone loan me the cash quick

where r u located

i may be intrested

Mate,

Sorry to hear you have to sell up, I can confirm that this is indeed a cracking car.

I would have taken it back if I hadn't got another project on the go just now.

Good Luck with the sale

Cheers Sha!

Sure you don't want it back??

It's just as good as you remember!

Car looks seriously clean... If i was looking for a 5th gen prelude then this would be it..

Just to let you know I'm located in Norwich, Norfolk.

Cheers

Hmmm, didn't realise you were soo close to me...

I might show my brother this thread, see if he fancies something special.

Failing that, good luck with the sale!

For anyone that is interested in this car, here is a link to my profile when I had it.

Hi all, right some people have asked about the idle probs i was having before. This appears to have been sorted after i cleaned the egr valve.
I'm going to be putting her in the autotrader in the next couple of weeks just so you know.
Cheers.
Tom

Do you want another 5th gen prelude!!!!!!

Hey Guys..

I've been really busy for a few weeks so haven't had a chance to get back to anyone really.

The mysterious running problem has re-occured which I thought had been sorted by cleaning the EGR. It's going into the garage next week to be sorted (probably need a new EGR )
It will also have 4 new tyres as well, I'll get back to you when it's sorted.

Oh and sorry guys I don't want another prelude in PX as if I wanted to keep a Prelude I would keep the Typs S because it's AWESOME!!!!

hmmm tempting... tell me how you get on with the repair.

oh, if possible any latest pics of the interior and engine bay? Thanks.

Of course mate... I'll try and take some pics this weekend.
