Aarons 5G Motegi Project

Post by Aaron14P » Sun Nov 30, 2014 8:46 pm

Recently sold a 54 plate civic and decided it was time for something a bit more exciting ;)

and judging from what i have been reading on preludes, i have managed to grab myself a bargain!!!

63,000 miles, MOT until october, full service history, 2 owners (one family), 4WS in order touch wood nothing seems wrong!!

got the train from reading - Manchester and drove it back and it feels completely solid. Very, VERY pleased with my purchase

it needs a bit of cosmetic work to get it looking mint which is no bother, i have got quite a lot planned but it will be slow progress as having a child is a financial leech! aha :lol: only owned the car just over a day and already fallen in love, so thought i would share my enthusiasm for it with others!!

will get some pictures posted of the car as it stands ASAP and will upload pictures as i make progress with car... speaking of which i cannot figure out how to attach photos?!? any help would be appreciated!!

Yep, Merc is reliable at everything on new purchases, except checking wheelstuds. ;) :hug: :lol:


Welcome aboard, glad you're so pleased already with the lude, looks like you've got a good one there, as you say.

Look forward to seeing how it progresses :D
