So, as some may know, i wanted a Teg, my insurance company didnt want to know... So i then wanted a FN2, but after many suggestions to try the EP3 and FN2 back to back, and with a splash of common sense I decided the Ep3 was the way to go...

So, after a lot of searching, well a week or so, i found this...

A 55 plate, Satin Silver Civic Type R, EP3... it came with the 18" OZ alloys, which im not overly struck on and im thinking of buying a set of original CTR alloys, but they arent too bad, imo.

I managed to get this for £9489 and considering included kit im very happy with it, it has a smart Pioneer Avic headunit, with Sat Nav, TV tuner, DVD, 6disc changer, iPod plug and Parrot BT, which all seems very nice. It has tinted rear windows, A/C and a nice Momo steering wheel, which lead me to believe it may be a 30th Anniversary edition, but, it isnt badged as such, so probably not.

The only downside to the car from my point of view is the mileage, which for its age (Jan06 registered) is high at 47400, but it comes backed with a full Honda main dealer service history and from the interior its clear the previous owner has really looked after it.

Sorry ive no better pictures, but unfortunately ive leant my portable sun unit out.
