serious bargain for someone! i sold it for 5k back in the day, since had plenty of new goodies, worth a lot more in parts!
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1997-HONDA-CIVIC-EK4-1-6-VTI-BLUE-Highly-Tuned-/250823868804?_trksid=p5197.m7&_trkparms=algo%3DLVI%26itu%3DUCI%26otn%3D3%26po%3DLVI%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D127317553554738328 shame about the scratch and wheel mind, few bits id change if i owned it again, but overall a very sorted car!

I thought it was that car, could barely even tell from the pictures on the advert, people are retarded when it comes to selling stuff some times

Bloody hell, that's only in the next town from me, and never seen it driving around when i've been in Biggleswade which almost everyday. If I had £4k i'd buy it right off the guy, loved it when you owned it. Proper nice Civic. Hope it goes to a good new owner.

The owner bought it then killed the clutch, probably why it hasn't been out and about

Ah, right. So they weren't the most careful of drivers to kill a clutch then. :doyle: If that hasn't shifted in a few months, and if I get this new job. Might have to see how money is with me and take it off his hands. But a lovely Civic looking like that will shift pretty quickly.

It takes quite a lot of High rev launches to kill those clutches

Nice, one good things with Honda's. They just keep going and going.  Would love a EG6 or EK4. Have had Eck trying to make me get a Civic similar to his shape the other week back. Was quite tempting tbh.

Specifially the EK4, or Vtec Civic's? They are really easy to live with! You can daunder along getting decent mpg and they are quite civilised when you don't have a loud loud LOUD exhaust like a Spoon N1, a 5Zigen or Buddyclub etc
