You just want a UKDM like mine was then.

And I got £2000 for mine as standard ;-) ... But that was from the insurance man ;-)

H22 was the plan for my last one, I even bought a 4g with a H22 so I could do a swap, however couldn't get hold of engine mounts neither a trustworthy garage who was willing to do the work as I'm not very mechanical...! I've been on some sites that import jap cars, however none have prelude 3g's available for import! :(

NafemanNathan - Did you buy your car back of the insurance company? Got any pics of yours? :)

No mate, they wouldn't let me. There was damage to the rear shock tower that "couldn't be repaired", so they couldn't risk it ending up back on the road :roll:

It's stuff like this that make me not miss owning a 3g, they really are a magnet for the weird and wonderful. Trouble is I do miss it and there are no decent ones for sale anymore and by that I mean condition-price ratio.
