interior is a bit shabby though.

Yeah and there is repair work visible on the rear n/s.

I'm telling you mate, there is no good condition, manual, JDM, BB1 for sale, on this planet.

Personally I wouldn't hold out for JDM. It's nice to have a JDM, but if you find a good UK one go for it. I've not really noticed the difference between a JDM and UKDM H22 in everyday use, even though there is the 12bhp difference on paper.

It's not just the engine, you also get more toys.

But yes, it's not the be all and end all.

more toys with UKDM for sure and winddeflectors are about it, i'd have a UKDM over JDM everyday of the week the power isnt that noticeable for the increase in insurance on an import

More toys with UKDM? Climate, electric folding mirrors & memory seats?

Insurance is twice the price though which sucks the baw

Another point to note of mine..... It's a ukdm car but has been transplanted from a jdm donor during its rebuild, so is low uk insurance, but has all the benefits and toys of jdm

Yup. Mines a UKDM with obviously a new engine, but even with that my insurance is less than an import. As for leccy mirrors, I just retro fitted some. Problem solved.
