Selling my Accord Type R as it's not really what I require at the moment. I love it, but it has to go unfortunately. Costing me £26 a month to insure at the minute lol!!
MOT'd Feb 2012 (Expired today)
Tax'd Feb 2012
Doing around 35-40mpg at the minute, with mixed driving. Easy to run, with bags of performance when needed. Usual Type R specification including Recaro Interior, 17" wheels, Limited Slip Diff, Momo Steering wheel, 212bhp 2.2 DOHC VTEC H22A engine
The only modifications are an induction kit, apex lowering springs, decat and an Alpine CD/MP3 player.
Recently fitted new parts include:
New Clutch
New Clutch Slave Cylinder
New Battery
New rear drop link
New timing belt kit
I was told by the previous owner that the gearbox was reconditioned at ~90k miles, however there is no paper work to prove this. A quick drive will dispel any doubt as there are no crunches and 5th and reverse are easily engaged (the problem area on these boxes)
As with any 11 year old car, it's got it's bad points. There is some minor surface rust appearing on the OSF door, along the bottom, it is minor and an easy fix, but it's never really annoyed me that much, as you can see from the pics, it's barely noticable! There are a couple of other age related marks on the body also, but nothing major that detracts from the overall look of the car.
Worth noting that the wheels have been sprayed black by an amateur, and so the paint is flaking slightly in places. Also, barely noticeable, but worth mentioning I think.
I'd love to keep this, but I just can't justify it. Baby coming and I'm moving house, whilst working full time and going to tech part time! I've no spare time for this, so it's got to go.
I'm in Northern Ireland by the way!! Pics. ....
