I saw this one yesterday on eBay and thought it looked like a great buy Tbf.
I've had a little bit of a problem this afternoon. I took the car slowly up my road, just to make sure there wasn't any further issues and of course there is
Anyone selling a 5th Gen power steering fluid cooler?

I've asked on there, thanks.wurlycorner wrote:Have a loom in the cars breaking section, should be a couple of 5g's in there.
Nb: there are 2 different types of coolers fitted to 5g. Can't recall if they're directly interchangeable or not, but someone will know...
I've seen ones without the cooling fins are they the other version? Actually would a 4G cooler work, looks pretty similar.
Hmm, perhaps the one on my 3G might fit
Still available due to ebay timewasters, price reduced.

Looking for £495.

Rare 1999 Honda Prelude 2.2 VTEC Motegi
I am reluctantly listing my Prelude for sale as I haven't driven it for several years due to ill health. It has sat unused on my drive since autumn 2008 and has been on SORN ever since. The car was purchased in June 2007 and has done less than 1000 miles in my ownership. When it was last used there were no faults present and everything worked as it should, the lack of use is purely down to my ongoing health issues. However, it's last MOT expired in April 2009 and has not had any maintenance since. The battery was completely dead, so I have just fitted a new Exide battery and some fresh fuel, it started first time without any problems. I have checked the car over and detail the condition as follows:
Please bear in mind that as it is not currently road legal, it has not been road tested.
Engine & Gearbox: Runs very nicely with no untoward noises. A little bit of smoke on first starting, but possibly this is due to stale fuel/needing a service and sitting for so long, as I never noticed this when in use previously. Revs cleanly and idles smoothly. Will need a fluid service and cambelt in due course.
Brakes: All discs are heavily corroded and will need replacement before an MOT. The handbrake was seized but this has now been freed off and the car can be moved although there are a couple of high spots on the rear discs.
Steering: The four wheel steering appears to be working correctly. The power steering fluid cooler had corroded (a common issue) and has been bypassed with a length of hose as it was leaking. This is a temporary fix although other owners have continued to run with a bypass without any issue.
Electrics: All windows, sunroof, fans, radio/cd, mirrors and lights operating correctly. The Air-con is no longer blowing cold, so will require a regas at minimum.
Wheels & Tyres: The 17" Motegi alloys were refurbished in 2008 and have no kerbing marks.The paint however has bubbled in several places so would ideally require a respray. All tyres are in good visual condition. The offside rear (Bridgestone RE040) was fitted in March 2008 and has had less than 250 miles use. The front nearside is no longer holding air, possibly due to age or valve as it hasn't been anywhere to get punctured.
Interior: The very rare optional Honda sports leather interior is in good condition but there are some wear and tear marks present on the front seats. The rear seats are in excellent unmarked condition. The leather steering wheel has definitely seen better days and is quite worn, but there are no tears or rips. The floor mats are in good condition but there is some sun fading on the passenger side. The rare optional black leather with red stitching gear knob and handbrake cover are showing some wear but with no rips or tears. The very rare 4 piece carbon panel set (doors, centre console, cup holder and gear shift surround) is in very good condition.
Bodywork: In excellent condition. I had a few parking dents/dints professionally removed by a highly skilled paintless dent removal man. The only dent he was unable to remove was on the bonnet as this is double skinned. The arches and sills appear to be solid and the only real signs of rust I can find are some small blemishes in the boot shut surround and the sunroof assembly.
Paintwork: The Supermarine Blue paint is in good condition but would benefit from a clay or orbital polish to really bring back the deep shine. There are a few small blemishes but these should respond to some paint restorer or polish. Meguiars three step system is what I have used in the past and recommend. The worst panel is the bootlid, unfortunately the lacquer has broken down and it would really need respraying to look good again.
Other: I do not have the red key and only have one working black immobiliser key. I have a spare black key, but this doesn't seem to be recognised by the car although I understand it may be possible for an Auto Electrician to recode from the working key. I also only have one working remote keyfob for the optional alarm/immobiliser. The spare just doesn't seem to want to power up. I believe replacements are still available from the manufacturer, Hamiliton and Palmer and can be coded using the existing keyfob. Obviously, if you are happy just to have one working key or intend breaking the car then this is irrelevant.
In summary, this is a rare model Prelude fitted with some rare optional extras that will need some work to restore to its former glory or easily broken for good quality parts. Will need to be removed by trailer or similar from Rustington, West Sussex BN16.
