As above, they are going for about 1-1.5k. its 1.8 Turbo, rear wheel drive coupe. Insurance for me is looking around 1k TPFT thats only 100quid more than i was quoted for a civic vti.

Parkers Say: SX Turbo (165 bhp) rear-wheel drive Coupe launched. 5-speed gearbox or 4-speed Auto, disc brakes all round (with ABS option), PAS, electric windows and mirrors, sunroof, central locking, sports seats.

A Bargin though. The interior does look nice, just get some good material and a few grannies together and im sure they could re-trim it.
