I didn't see one Prelude.

That's one thing I love about owning a Prelude, it's very rare. I saw a couple of Ferarris, a couple of Lamborghinis and a Ford GT40 / Ford GT (couldn't tell for sure, was going the opposite direction on a dual carriageway) but I didn't see any Honda Preludes over those 710 miles.

On a side note, I love the roads in the west country.

Also, 35-36 MPG = impressive.

Same when I drove the 1200 mile round trip to Le Mans in June, didn't see a single Prelude on either leg of the journey. Did see a 5th gen parked up in Le Mans but that was it.

At the Classic British Welcome there were 3 NSX's and just my Prelude.

Therefore Prelude is rarer than NSX

My mate has a TVR Griffith, and I certainly see more of them on the road than Preludes.

I'm South Manchester, don't drive up to the city often. I see a blue Lude every now right by home. He's let onto me but musnt be a member on here.Always been driving past each other on the main roads so no chance to stop.

If it's a really nice bright blue then it could be Mercutio I bought a part off him, he's a sound fella

Never saw a prelude but did see 4 Lamboughinis, 5 Ferraris, a convoy of Catherms (

) and 2 Lotus's.
