Hi...

Post by Sobo » Mon Jan 20, 2014 5:07 pm

Hi All,

New to this forum.

I used to have a 5th Gen 2.2vti for around 4 years between 2007 and 2011. And a 4th Gen 2.2 vtec for a around 3 months in 2012.

Im currently looking for a second car (first car boring 320d sport commuter) and am tempted to go for another 5th Gen but this time with a h22a8. Was looking to get on PUK but realised everyone had moved on, so i joined here now.

I have not been looking at 5th Gens for a while so dont know what they are going for atm. What is a ballpark figure for a 5th Gen with H22A8, decent miles and Motegi kit...?

If anyone is looking to sell, please give us a shout!

Anyway, thanks for having me here. :)

Sobo

Welcome along. Yes you should be able to pick one up for not very much atm.

Have a look in the for sale section on here, you could even pick up a Type-S for not a lot.

Thanks for the welcome guys.

Would have loved a Type S, but my insurance (business and private together) will only allow for UKDM only. I see a lot of Autos around but not many manuals.

I have seen a manual one that needs a bit on the bodywork. But has no Motegi kit and I'm guessing they are even harder to find than they were 3/4 years ago!

I saw the Turbo for sale and was amazed, but same problem with the insurance! :(

Motegi bits do come up on here. Might have to build up the full kit in bits, but you could get there.

Hope it's a good 'un.

Good luck, God Speed, and think of how much fun the drive home will be... :)



Ps. What's happened to your avatar, Iain? Sorry, avataaaaaagh!
It pleases me, in a "tickle my 8-bit button" kind of way.

Edit: That looks nice, Rob. (36 Mpg? *snort*)
