MOT till June 2024 - had new prop shaft bearing, crank position sensor and ball joint links last time, will pass next MOT no issues. (happy to put 12 month MOT on if asking price is met) 127000 miles Desirable QD32ETi engine ! Lots of extras, 2 sunroofs, electric curtains ect. Will come with large camping awning for days out/ camping/ picnics, extremely useful. Clean interior, half leather/ half Alcantara. Zonal front and rear climate control Solid underneath. Doesn't need any welding. A previous owner wax oiled it many years ago. 8 seater Spacious vehicle, seats can spin around or all fold down to make a large flat bed or fold up walls to make space in rear like van. Clever flexible set up. Mirror privacy tints on rear cabin. Has full OEM optional extra body kit, spoiler, wind deflectors, smart looking MPV. Optional extra search light. Optional extra 'Elgrand' hood ornament. Full set of fluffy JDM mats Extremely RARE sought after Bridgestone CV928 wheels, few marks but straight and clean with no buckling or previous welds etc. Bad bits: - 25 year old car, quiet a few age related marks/ scuffs around bodywork but absolutely solid underneath. (previously waxoiled) - Speakers aren't producing sound. Tried putting in another head unit but doesn't receive power. Haven't had time to investigate further than this but most likely an easy fix. Doesn't affect how it drives at all. - Tear on driver seat (near left elbow) and passenger seat (lower left section) - Exhaust rattling around a bit. We purchased this vehicle at start of Covid to enjoy camping around UK. Have taken it to corners of country and back without breaking a sweat. Then gets parked up over winter with battery disconnected until following year to start camping again. I think the fact we can leave it for several months and then simply connect battery up to start it up again and take it the corners of the country without any issue is a good reflection of how reliable its been, arguably a harder test than a car which has been used daily. Drives nicely, boost coming on time and smooth gear changes. Responsive brakes, stops well. Suspensions feels good. Climbing kerbs feels like driving over a speedbump. Never let us down, extremely comfortable and reliable. No smoke on heavy throttle, mechanically 10/10. Surprising economical being the 3. 2 TD RWD variant, had 35+ mpg out of it. Selling because have kid on the way and won't have time to go camping anymore. Treat yourself to a cheap, go anywhere, well spec'd camper for those summer adventures. £3,000 o.n.o, P/X or swaps considered. 07947994469

1986 Honda Civic Wonder 1.3 SB3 Just rolled over to 49k mileage MOT'd till June, can put 12 month on for next owner - passed previous MOT with no advisories. Fully stamped Honda service history booklet - Big wod of receipts thereafter. Been very well looked after. Starts first time on choke every time. Engine still feels as though breaking in. Smooth, easy gear changes. Finished in Astral Blue. Stunning condition for the best part, few marks and blemishes as to be excepted from 36+ year old car, nothing serious. Passenger side door has some lacquer/paint fade. Passenger rear sill end has had tiny bit of welding carried out. No where else has ever been welded. Front/Rear bumpers previously sprayed to look new. Started to flake off, original color underneath not damaged so can be stripped back, I planned on color coding the bumpers myself.. This car is unmolested for the best part, still rocking the OEM 80's analogue dial radio ! Upgrades: - Steel braided brake lines - CRX rear axle for improved handling - Top hats on front and lowering springs on rear. Extremely useable classic, absolute joy to drive whilst returning 45+ mpg ! Will be tax/MOT exempt in 4 years.. Wish i could keep but selling to create funds to build my other, less presentable SB3 Civic ! £4,500 with extras (OEM splitter, USDM corner lights and JDM rear light piece) Or £4,000 with standard items. Will come on black OEM Honda steelies, pics just to show how she looks on decent set of wheels. Viewing recommended ! Car is located in Nottingham !

Apologies for lack of updates people, life has gotten in the way ! Plan to start work on it again within next week or 2... Had a few exciting arrivals in the meantime... Safety Devices Roll Cage with all options .. Also a Summit Technologies Raptor kit for interior loom and ancillaries. (wireless steering wheel panel and control panel). Had a few more bits arrive but those perhaps the most exciting ! Would be great if anyone can help me source the following items so I can get engine off to my builder... I'm searching for ZC1 adjustable cam gear and oversized pistons please...

Hey man, I absolutely love the car. I actually bought an 86 civic hatchback 5 speed and i am in love with it. I kinda found it in a ghost town and it had only 72k miles on it. I did a lot of cosmetic work to it. I put in a pioneer carplay radio, mirror tints all around, replica spoon wheels and a mustang grabber blue paint job. Like yo said its only about 50bhp but its so fun to drive. Especially after putting bigger tires then the OEM ones. As you can tell i am speaking of my honda as if it is dead. Sadly its in a coma i guess haha. I was at stop sign one day and i put it into first, eased of the clutch and then *glass shatter noise* My car was muffler deleted so it was already "loud", but now its loud but sounds deeper. the rpms bounce up and back down at idle and the engine feels like 10bhp. If theres a hill, the car barely makes it up. It seems like youre pretty knowledgeful in the mechanical aspect. Do you know what can be causing my rough idle, low power and white smoke from exhaust? Ive cut the CAT off to ensure a clogged CAT is not the issue. Thanks for your time )) Apologies for late response, not been online much and life has taken over !.. The 'glass shattering' noise definitely sounds suspect, perhaps done some internal damage but these engines are pretty bulletproof. Anyway, theres a spare engine sat at my residence, if you can collect its yours for free. Was running when removed Or if you'd like a bit more power, I've got a 1.5 engine, with longer manifold so straight swap. £100.00 collected on that one.

Apologies for the late update, but sold this years ago.. New owner sent over these photos within a few days of sale... turns out she was extremely clean under all that muck ! Really glad it's gone to someone who will cherish. Hope you enjoy these pics as much as I did..

1998 Nissan Elgrand 3.2 Turbodiesel Highway Star Automatic RWD Super practical JDM camper/family carrier/van in presentable condition. RWD and Diesel so kind of economical, 30+mpg on motorway. MOT till 11th September 2021 93000 miles on clock (150k km) Solid underneath. Doesn't need any welding. 8 Seater Spacious vehicle, seats can spin around or all fold down to make a large flat bed or fold up walls to make space in rear like van. Clever flexible set up. Rear and boot doors have soft close feature. Tow bar fitted. Has full OEM body kit, spoiler and wing deflectors on it, smart looking MPV. Drives perfect with boost coming on time and smooth gear changes. Responsive brakes, stops well. Suspensions feels great, climbing kerbs like driving over a speedbump. Never had any issues, extremely reliable vehicle. Bad bits: - Speed sensor gone - been using Google maps or Waze to display live GPS speed. (estimated less than 4k miles done since going) - Bit of scabbing on front wings. Couple other areas had tiny bit of surface corrosion but all been treated now. (See photos) - Spells 'L'Gran' on back at the moment but have the 2 missing letters here to stick back on. - 23 year old car so some age related marks/debts but nothing major at all. Speed sensor not required for MOT so will pass next time with no issues. But good to replace so it reads mileage again.. 2 sets of keys, 5 previous owners and no accident history/cat mark. V5 present and ready to go ! Priced to sell - £2,000 first to see will buy. Contact me on 07947994469 with any questions or for viewing.

I'm on this one, interested to see the history not seen on yet with any history for sale very rare now people just don't want to sell them, cant believe my luck to find this one Hi Formula1 Did you win in auction? My mate told me it sold for around 12k !! Mega money but ain't so bad considering that's what decent condition Renault 5 Turbos go for.... And I know which one I'd rather have haha.

Thanks Geordie, be another fun yet reliable workhorse to put amongst your lovely collection.. Honestly mate, don't tempt me haha... noticed you have a thing for quirky, reliable, rare vehicles...so has your name written all over it fella. Have had a few swap offers but don't really have the time nor space to entertain swap offers at the min.. Will consider PX with a decent mountain bike. £1,300 is the absolute best price I can do for anyone here. I've spent over 500 quid in last 1000 miles and comes with 400+ quid spares so it's a great deal for someone looking for something useable.. I just noticed the parts list doesn't include brake pads, but pretty sure I've got a set of pads for both fronts and rear to go on with discs. Thanks.

Very nice, is it actually AWD? No, it has had a replacement tail gate as the glass on original one got damaged when carrying a load. It just so happens to be from a V70R!Haha yes, you almost fooled me tbh, kinda figured it wasn't an R, but they made normal version in AWD too didn't they? IIRC it was only an 'AWD' badge at the back that was externally different.. they looked same otherwise.
