The interior looks really nice on that, and it has the central dash speaker. Only thing I would change inside would be to get some EL dials in there.

There is quite a lot of bodywork to sort out mind, but this really shouldn't be broken, it would be a shame.

yep - great spec and some rare parts ;)
dont know why the air refiner is on the dash - i thought it went on the roof :)
dibs on the radio if its getting broken for parts :lol:
prob will get broken for parts if it stays in the uk as bodywork/paint costs would be mega high - might stand a chance of being repaired if it goes abroad....

I have contacted the seller as soon as it was listed, genuine ad. I would love to add it to my collection, although some serious work would be necessary.

Drax - i can see the air refiner in place on the back shelf - was looking at the thing in the centre of the dash - doesnt look like dsp speakers (which it should have) and doesnt look like an oem clean install so was wondering if this was part of the air refiner - sure i heard there was one that went up where the third high level brake light is on prefacelift.. :? :)

batkosio - this would fit right in with your other ludes :) at least we would know it would be saved and restored ;)

Nick, this is the Gathers DSP system, offered as a Honda Access option and installed afterwards, rather than the Honda DSP which came installed from the factory. This explains the last minute install look :)

It is part of an OEM Gatherers audio system, mine had this fitted when I got it, it looked gash and went in the bin in day one.
