Full Service History
4 Months Tax
11 Months MOT

Your looking at one very clean ATR that has a full service history with two files full of receipts ,i had the cam belt changed when i bought the car(68K),the work was carried out at Vtec Direct.A few thousand miles later the car developed the dreaded gearbox crunch,i had this fixed again at Vtec Direct and while it was there i had them fit a 4.4KG flywheel and new clutch.It's also has a K&N Typhoon intake,Tein strut brace,XYZ coilovers and a solid engine mount and any other little bits it's ever needed,again all fitted at Vtec Direct.
The car was completely std when i bought it,so all the modifications have been done during my ownership(everything is pretty much new still).
ENGINE:
Std with K&N Typhoon Induction Kit
Solid front engine mount(my old one was cracked)
4.4KG Flywheel
CHASSIS:
XYZ Super Street Coilovers(only a few months old) fully height and damper adjustable.
Tein Front Strut Brace(a rare part to find now)
WHEELS:
Std ATR wheels in stock colour,they have started to bubble but i have a spare set which have just been sand blasted which will come with the car.
One of the tyres is a bit lower than the others but still has a few thousands miles left yet,all other have 4-5mm tread.
BRAKES:
The brakes are std Honda spec but with some Brembo pads in the rear(these were fitted last month)
EXTERIOR:
Completely std,but i have removed the Accord badge on the rear,and sprayed the front grille satin black.
The paint is in good condition(i'm big into polishing cars and have done the paint correction myself),there are a few marks here and there on the front and rear bumpers(previous owners),but with the car being black it shows every little mark,no rust anywhere.
The headlights are mint,they were cloudy when i bought the car,but i soon put this right.
INTERIOR:
Again std,with no rips anywhere.The head unit has been replaced with a Kenwood CD/Radio,simple but does the job.
There is a little bit of sun fade on the rear seats,but can only be seen with the door open.
Original Type R floor mats in very good condition.
Steering wheel shows signs of wear,and the drivers seat has a few bobbles on it but no rips.
I love the way this car drives,the Jekyll and Hyde nature of the engine is amazing,quite subdued one minute and wild raging beast the next,i had the car tested on a rolling road at Awesome Gti and it gave some impressive figures(226bhp),the car pulls like a train,doesn't smoke and uses very little oil.
The handling is something else,best car i've ever driven and tbh the car is probably better than my driving skill
The car currently sits quite low,but this can easily be adjusted with the C spanners.I also have the std suspension which will come with the car if wanted.The ride quality is amazing,never felt sport suspension be so comfy and will be using XYZ in the future.
