Not a scraper imo - looks in generally good condition, but you will need to put some money into getting both arches properly repaired if you are planning to keep it or are worried about how it looks. As others have pointed ours it's a BA8 (f22b non vtec, non 4ws)

I really wanna try an f22b to see what the engine is like...

@Nick_Riptide his track 4g was a F22b, i think he still comes on here from time to time if you want to ask him

You should have asked when I had mine.
They're not slow, just as much pull as the H22, but without the top end.

Didnt realise yours was an F22

I had assumed it was a vtec...

btw if you had let me take yours for a spin, it would have come back minus wheels...

Same car on autotrader with desciption 2.2 vtec after couple phone calls changed to 2.3 non vtec

https://www.gumtree.com/p/honda/honda-p ... 1165591287
Another one advertised with few months MOT - same story - MOT expired two weeks ago

Looks like cars with dodgy sellers should be send to Poland for parts

Very hard job to find good one.
OMG - been outbid on ebay by someone who have 25 bid rectriatons last 6 months - feedback 86% - pumping up price for dodgy friends.
