A very very reluctant sale of this amazing ep3, but moving on to bigger and better! Spent in the area of 7months looking for the perfect CTR for me when this came up. Such an amazing example with a great selection of mods been carried out. The car speaks for itself , has surprised many cars including a megane rs, ITR S3 etc. I have a folder stacked with history for the car ranging from the first sale receipt from Honda down to things like badges. The car has never had any cheap work only the best, with receipts to back almost all of it ! The previous mot was sailed through with ZERO advisories at all. Underneath the car is mega clean , this benefitting from the underselling of the car in 2008. Interior of this car is immaculate , no bolster wear on the recaros. I can't say how much I may regret this but I only have one way to find out. Car also has a full service history, not all stamps but recipes of goods purchased and done privately.

Bad points, every car has them. The front end suffers from stonechips, it has never bothered me though. There is a small dink in the passengers door from a carpark.

Small stone chip on the passenger arch in where a tiny amount of paint rust has started. This only happened a few weeks ago however so nothing to worry about.

Coilovers could benefit from a rebuild. Spoke to tein and with them being so track focused there not good on uk roads. They do make the odd clunking noise now and them. I have been to Honda and the steering rack is still fine though.

Previous owner thought it would be a good idea to line the boot in red felt. I ripped it out but it's left the old glue residue behind !
