Hi

This isn't much of a first post for my prelude as I've only had it a day.

Picked this up from Oldham on Saturday from an old bloke whose had it for 12 years (and still insisted on calling it a "Montegi"). It's in good condition but in need of a full service, the headlights have yellow'd up, the key fob doesn't work and there's something wrong with the passenger window. These are fairly minor problems for a car this old so I'm happy with it so far.

Sorry for only taking a couple of snaps but the Calibra is taking up too much room for me to get more pictures.

I'm gonna have to sort out those centre caps as well

Engine bay also needs a good clean up.

I think I saw this on Gumtree, looked like a very nice and well looked after example.

Awesome! We who have blue A8 Motegis salute you!

Looks like you have had a fantastic buy there. tbh my engine is not much cleaner than that one. :oops:
