Whilst at the barn today, got it out for the wash I meant to do a previous week.

Just a quick bucket wash, but wanted to see how well it comes up. Bear in mind the car is still wet in these pics so even the bonnet and bootlid look ok (they aren't) but the rest is good. A respray of the bonnet, bootlid, spoiler and both bumpers should do it - the rest is fine 8-)

And is this OEM enough for you @nitin_s1 :lol:

Nice one, wurly, b/h Honda have their own branded wheelweights!!!. How come the wheel caps do not have the 'H' device in their centres?

I think they do have an H in the centre caps, but it's the same colour as the rest of the wheel, so it doesn't show up well in the photo's.

Yeah, the H is embossed. Would look good filled with black though :think:

Iain - those wheels are suited to that car perfectly - never feel tempted to change them! Slap good tyres on, and enjoy 4WS the way Honda intended.

Yeah don't worry, this will be staying standard. Possibly manual conversion, we'll see. If I get it back on the road, serviced and panels resprayed this year though, that will definitely be enough for now!

It has Michelins on at least 2 corners already :D Can't remember what's on the other 2 :think:

Yesterday was the first time I've actually moved it around myself tbh and the 4WS is certainly much more dramatic than on a 4th gen...

Great buy! Looks like it won't take too much to bring this car back to its former glory.

I forgot to say, that I noticed yesterday it doesn't have the brakelight in the spoiler, which surprised me for a top spec model?
