Hey all,

Well, this is my first ATR and my first honda, had it about 1 month and so far loving it !

Posted Image

It was a total impulse purchase to be honest, as I had an MR2 Mk1, but I work for a Ginetta race team and have to travel alot so the motorway miles were just killing me (usual old man rant coming from a 20 year old)

This thing however seems to cover all my needs, and isn't too bad on the juice IMO :)

I've just gave it a full service and just hoping to clean up the headlights and powdercoat the wheels really.

Enjoy, Alex !

Thanks for the warm welcome.

The Car has done 150k and other than alloy wheels being a bit worn, its pretty good condition :)

First thing I did was clear out the EGR plate (thanks to great guide on here !) and it pulls strong as ever, lovely engine.

Are there many ATR meets that take place then ?

Haha quite glad I'm not running that MR2 in the winter.

Also, is a 35w D2R 6000K bulb plug and play, no messing ? as my bulb has gone and thought it would be a nice upgrade.

Cheers

Probably not a good photo, but it gives you idea of what your car would look like if a van driver smashed into you. :lol:

(apologies to Tim for using his pictures :oops: )
