An old guy at my dads work approached him and asked if I wanted his civic as apparently I'm 'into them' , I'm not really just drive a type r.
Anyway it's a 1988, 1.4 16v,58k, 1 owner and always garaged. Downside is its an auto
Are these worth anything in the same way a clean nova is of the same age ?? Are these retro cool yet?
I can get it for next to nothing so if I could clean it up and get £500 il take a punt but its not really worth my time otherwise.

Hmm might not be a money spinner then
I just got sent a photo and it seems to have a twin carb 16v engine. Could be laugh
I have no storage issue so might get it anyway, can't really go wrong for £100 considering its clean with low miles

Was looking at these.
If it's as clean as it sounds, then ye I would say it's easily worth £500.
Put it on civiclife etc

Were the CRX actually classed as a Civic?
I'm sure it'll be a Civic DX (I think that's the model name).
This style

For the price, you can't complain. If the shell is mint you'll easily make £500+. Someone will just shove a b series in it As said, it'll be EE/EF.
