I love to go around autotrader, pistonheads, etc to look at cars for sale. I searched autotrader for a civic and saw one of these came up...

1992 HONDA Civic VTi

Don't know why people have to do that.. The only good thing about that car is the K20 swap but if you click on Performance & Economy.. it is producing only 158bhp..

It's just these modified cars make me sad :(......

Probably just means the engine swap isn't declared, so the registration pulls the details for the original car.
 
dont see the point what so ever they spend endless amounts of money slapping a massive body kit on / I.C.E / making it super low then put a k20 in that wont ever be used properly cause of everything that is on the car weighing it down and scraping everywhere will also get trailerd everywhere aswell why do people do it the max power days are over move on !! :angry2: haha

I agree... don't get the point of massive body kit... I think those people watched Fast and Furious wayyyy too much....
 
Lol for once i disagree with you all.

I know the guy that owns/owned this car he built it and spent years doing so and at the time when everyone wanted a fast and furious styled car it was one of the only ones actually done properly. it was featured in Banzai and as much as its not to everones taste (nor mine now) i appreciate all the hard work that went into building it and doing it properly instead of the crap crashed into halfords jobs.

Sure i'll get slated for this but if anyone is looking for a car like that £5500 grand is a bargain for what was spent.

Each to there own i suppose.

We all grow up and 5 years ago this was all the rage.

:thanks: and goodnight :D
 
pretty sure i seen this car years ago in some magazine and it look the part back then. Now though, a new set of wheels and a different colour and i'd still probably like it... :eek:

At least he's went all out and up'd the performance side of things instead of modding a 1.0 corsa. God I must be getting old....
