As some of you know, I purchased my first ever lude a week ago and one of the reasons I quite like it (apart from that ass!) is you don't tend to see many around. So I head to the gym tonight and sat in the car park is a 2.0 prelude...same year as mine too!! It was a silver one, completely standard. Doubt it belongs to anyone on here but just wanted to rant :lol:

Just in case it is anyone on here, it was the gym near the train station in Ashford.

Rant over!

Don't even start. I was the same.

2 days later another red 5th gen and then my parents ring and tell me there's one parked round the corner Frome them.

And none of them have rusty arches!

It feels like im playing gta

I honestly couldn't believe it, haven't seen one in....for as long as I can remember but within a week of owning one there it is looking all smug in a car park!

Aren't the rusty arches standard?! Or have I missed something :lol:

Always the way!!

Though I think some of it is psychology.......they're probably always there, but until you've bought or shown interest in it, they probably just didn't register with you.

I was just thinking the other day... I think I have the only Prelude(s) in my town now, then just yesterday whilst driving to my parents (just 3 minutes away) we passed a 5th gen parked on a driveway just up from my parents house!

Which reminds me, I need to do a spotted thread!

I agree, it is all in the crazy head as I did think I've never really looked out for them but at the same time I can't help but have a good gawp if I do see one. Oh well, I just have to come to terms there is another on my turf :cry: haha

It's a good thing anyway. If ever you've got a problem or need some spares, the chances are they might be able to help or have said part :)

... Or vice versa, it's always good to be able to help out ;)

True....I wouldn't mind betting this person isn't really into it though. Looked a bit doggy and rough around the edges and completely standard. I may be wrong though....I usually am!
