Don't know yet probably Honda dealer if I can kizzabash I like to put Honda parts on they fit better and then I know there won't be an issue when it comes to fit them ,all to often in the past when I have done bodywork for others and they supply parts from non dealer there is always extra work involved

Came back from my holiday Friday, bought this on Saturday! Bloody love it too! One owner, 45k, FSH, standard! I did have all sorts of ideas before buying one what I wanted to do, but now I've got it and driven it a bit, all I want right now is my headunit and some decent door speakers! Hope to enjoy her as she is for now! Took it straight to my brothers garage, got her on a ramp and he says there's nothing that needs doing!

Since I joined Civic5 and started seeing all the nice Ms I have wanted to have a VTI deck in Pirates Black but due to financial reasons and the price they would be selling for I was unable to fulfil my dream..The other morning I went on Auto Trader just to have a look as usual with no plans of buying a Car..but as I searched for Honda Civic Estates I saw this ad of someone selling a Pirates Black one in Birmingham so me and mrs. decided to go have a look at the car..but as soon as we saw it we knew we have to buy it..so I took it for a test drive and loved it..It's done 136k..Completely standard..2 Previous owners and the last owner had it for 8 years..and it's evident that he looked after it and didn't abuse the car..There is no rust anywhere..some swirls and minor scratches on the paintwork but nothing major..I am very happy and excited to have this car and looking forward to some nice changes Pictures from the ad. I haven't taken any yet..but tomorrow morning if the weather is nice I will take some more

lol too true babe, it's one thing missing her knowing how well she's being looked after, but a complete other when she was being neglected by that numpty! Will always miss Ruby, she was my lady, my pal and general licence looser! lol Love her! I can sleep easier knowing she's in good hands though, and they tell me the shouting out her name in my sleep will pass with time! lol

got a J?

Picked up the rear lip today and when I saw the deck, I fell in love. This man has got a j here! Can't wait for the mods to start!

Do you have a welder?/are you fabricating yourself? Why would the rotisserie be too high to paint the underside? Just use a crate to stand on Ok mate, I'll give you a bell over Xmas.

Panels from Honda may be a good shout John. Especially with Western Honda discount

Ahhh RUBY! Glad to see she's still being pampered in good hands Good work mate

Good point I doing my rear arches and didn't think of honda. Will have to give them a ring. Love this car looks good after your winter clean

Lol doing handbrake turns sorted out my sticky rear caliper lol but i did have to change the cable after hehe

Cheers mate, yes I'm stripping the underside ready for welding and paint and hoped to leave the chassis on it for the painter but it seems a bit too high. I've got some welding to do also to mount the rad and power steering pump and a few small brackets around the roll cage. I've got a few pieces to paint (airbrushing hobby) before Xmas then I'm back on the civic but you're welcome any time:)

OMG Ruby looks amazing...........@Dave is well chuffed (and a bit sad too - he cries in his sleep sometimes and calls out her name......RRRRuuuuuuBBBBBByyyyyyy pmsl.) Thanks John for looking after her. Dave would have been a nightmare if she'd been neglected again. X

well as @Dave likes my wood i thought you should know that i have bought this!! was won on ebay for £8 delivered out of a Jaguar XK etc i had to drill and helicoil it to fit my car. will be fitting tomorrow when i wake up

Rainsports are probably the best tyres I've ever used, the grip is absolutely astounding and the turn-in and feel was much improved over the budgets, I've had potenzas, P zero neros, sport contact contis in the past and rate the rainsport3 higher tbh
