For sale: 1988 3rd gen Honda Prelude
Posted: Mon Jul 10, 2017 1:12 pm
Hello again,
So I've finally decided that I'm going to sell the 3rd gen. Turns out, like everyone said, buying a house and having kids has ruined me financially!
Here's a quick spec list and some info on the car. I remember I spent loads on it and sourced parts from the US and Oz. Mileage is 125,332. It is stored on gravel with good drainage.
• Lowered on Tokico Blues shocks with Neuspeed sport springs
• Genuine (I think) embroidered Honda grey leather interior - wear on the driver's lumber but otherwise in good nick
• MG ZT multi-spoke alloys
• TVs in the back of the headrests
• Custom made exhaust (Can't remember what or who, but I had the backbox rewelded on
• I'm pretty sure this is the imported version
• B20a7 engine - 150bhp
It's in a bit of a sorry state at the moment I'm afraid. Here's a list of what's up.
• I was periodically running it to keep it going, but recently it's stopped starting. I have put that down to the fuel pump. I planned on putting 12v onto it to see if it runs, but I haven't had the time.
• The hydraulic clutch has no fluid in it so it must have a pin prick leak somewhere.
• The paintwork has blemishes from being under a cover.
• Some rust around arches and door trims
• Front splitter has chipped paint from scraping on tow truck (car too low for the ramp).
• Engine bay not looking great
Despite all of this, I still get people knocking on my door asking about it at least once every couple of months.
I'm looking for around £700 for it.
Thanks, Dane
