Cheers Merlin.

Being an import, I assume, will put off alot of people. Import + high performance specifications would not go down so well with insurance companies either!?

(will cost alot).

Driven efficiently though, what do you think this might return? Into the 30's mpg?

Also, if an engine is reconditioned / rebuilt - doesnt this effectively mean the mileage becomes irrelevant (although granted, the rest of the car has still covered those miles).

Am I missing where it says the engine has been rebuilt?

Or is that YOUR plan?
Also, I don't think the TV or Sat Nav would work over here, though hopefully a knowledgeable 'Fiffer' will chime in soon to confirm.

Thats just a random thought (about rebuilding) - probably doesnt state anything about that in the Advert.

Looking at other Adverts, for Skylines, RX7's etc, alot have been rebuilt, which got me thinking - its relation to the "stated" mileage.

A few things could be putting people off it; it's at the higher end of what a Prelude costs nowadays, the stated milage is 123K (a fair chunk of that will be in km), JDM cars generally cost more to insure, most people dont know what it is, few people are in the position to own a Lude (low MPG, little space inside etc..).

I am sure that around 90k of this was in km, from memory and I am surprised too that it hasn't sold.

Has anyone actually been to see it?
