1997 Honda Prelude 2.2 SIR BB8 4WS JDM

144,000 km

JDM extras including
• Honda access suspension

• Genuine Window deflectors

No rust on car
4ws works
Reversing camera connected to JDM touch screen and head unit
New Alternator
MOT till March 2016

Bad Points
Auto gearbox slips in 4th gear and does not always go into reverse, which means the issue is with the 4th clutch. I have already changed the gearbox a few years ago and should have put it to manual then, but I didn’t. so the car will need either a manual conversation or a new auto box.
Still drives fine in 1st to 3rd
Front bumper needs small repair and respray along with the front skirt. Small oil leak and tracking needs doing.

I have lots of spare bits and pieces for the car left over from the previous donor car including
Front bumper (blue)
Wing mirrors
Ecus
Alternators (were not correct amp for this car)
Window screen motor
Headlight inserts black
Orange side indicators
Centre console
Front Airbags
Petrol cap cover
Centre heater vents
Speedo surround
Rear speaker covers
Wing mirrors
Spark plug cover
Exhaust trims
Front indicators
Front grill (Standard)
Front fog light covers
Heat shield
Front and rear seat belts
Clock
SRS airbag sensor
Gathers tape deck
Heater control unit
All these parts are included in the sale plus any other bits I have as I will not require then any more.

The only reason I have decided to sell the car is that I do not have the time or money to repair the car and I want to spend my time with my young family instead of on the car. Also will require at some point a bigger more family orientated car that’s a bit cheaper to run.
This is a well looked after car and much loved in the family, I even used it when I got married.

The car has been at Japfest for about 6 times and various other shows plus London Tunnel Runs
Breaking the car for parts is not an option for me as it would be a shame to break a good 5th gen.
