Not really used th'owd girl recently and as a consequence she failed her MOT needing welding on the rear suspension inner mounting area.

Only real downside is having to wait until 4th Jan before they can do it for me :crazy: But for a car with 261k kms I think she done me proud! My current daily is an 06 CR-V 2.2 iCDTI so I'm not panicking...just need to sort out some storage for the Lude 😜🤣

Kinda funny to think the Lude's fuel is cheaper than the CR-V's though. £1.66/l for Shell V-Power when topping up the other week 😜
Playtime the day before her MOT....and no I'm not a crappy parker😜 There was another car there when I pulled up 🤣

Nice that another Lude will still be on the road.

Sometimes you forget how low a Prelude is, until it’s parked next to a small car.

👍...and my Type-S is running at 4x4 height compared to other Ludes I've parked next to. It's been noted on a few meetups 🤣

Cheers fella♥️👍
My tall pals aren't too impressed with her, but as I'm a short-harse, she's awesome 😜🤣
She'll be reet, they're a good bunch at my local garage 😎👍 Anything too hard, I take her to Grinspeed in Leyland, as they're my "local" Honda Specialists 🤘♥️
