I think the auto 2.2 VTEC's are import only.

Yeah it would have to be as there was no UK Auto. Looks nice though.

surely that's not a jdm import due to the 2 piece instead of 1 piece headlights, and the air con is manual, not digi.... :?

:think: Are you sure? :? I don't conclusively 'know' otherwise atm, but... When I was first looking to buy a lude (over a decade ago now) 'all' the vtecs that were turning up for sale were bloody auto's :evil: and there wasn't the huge mass of jdm import ludes over here back then.
So I'm pretty sure there was a UKDM vtec auto??? :? :think: :? :think:

Positive. Go on Lings and select the DOHC VTEC, they only list the 5 speed manual. Lings are pretty comprehensive in their info.

The confusion is that the 2.0 and 2.3 UKDM's were available to option - you could spec various guises, the 2.2 VTEC came in one spec only in the UK. Manual, sunroof, blah blah.

Well the JDM one I own is and it has an LSD Box!
I have kleptomania,
But when it gets bad,
I take something for it.
