Not when you can buy a Lude for less than the amount it weighs in for no its not bias... Most types of cars bottom price sticks at a hundred or two above its scrap value. The ones that don't all get scrapped pretty quickly. Of the two Ludes I bought this week I paid £100 over scrap for the first one which was well worth it as it only cost me another £100 to get a years mot on it. So even if I run it for a year and scrap it ( not what I am planning) It will have cost me nothing by the time I sell a few bits and weigh it in. The second one I bought for spares is still taxed and moted for two months but in reality it would cost more than it would be worth to put it through another mot. As a spares car it is ideal though and again its a no lose situation.

I paid £850 for mine and it's in really surprisingly good condition

Wasn't there a post recently showing that there are less than 4,500 ludes in the UK? They are dropping like flies and out of all the millions of cars in the UK there are very few ludes! Its up to you what you ask for the car. I have heard many people say in the past that it was a bit of a joke, but you know what.... When you get kids going wow look at that car when the car is 3 times older than the kid, you know you have a cool car, the yanks go mad for them and the aussies, and everyone else, maybe its just the brits like the euro tubs too much.

I don't care what anybody says (although I like the good comments) I love my ludes, always have, always will.

Ugly my arse

That is beautiful i don't care what anyone else says unless they agree

My initial thought has been proved wrong, you will never buy a good 200 bhp lude for under a grand, I have one now after 6 months of looking and love it. Can say I happily paid more than a grand.

i must admit i dont like the stock front end of the 4th gen. it looks too beaky. it needs at least a lip or splitter or something to lower the line. i dont think i would have fallen in love and bought mine if it didnt have the body kit on it.

but aside from that its an amazing car and i love it, even if mine is a bit of a dog and spends most of its time being fixed rather then driven!

Just come out and say it, the stock Lude isnt a pretty car. However one she has a nice dress on and some makeup

Stock 4th gen's look gorgeous.
The oem lip on the JDM's is way too thin though - needs the UKDM lip as a minimum.

I think Preludes look as sporty as ever. Never been a fan of the rear lights on the 4G but each to their own.

And i think most cars, like women, show an improvement in the looks department with a nice little skirt on

I have a dilemma, do I sell my perfect 2.0 lude with the £850 wolfrace wheels and tyres or do I put the old olds wheels back on. They are 4 stud so don't fit my BB8.
