lol yeah, and the look on some of the faces of those big money cars owners when you blow them away is priceless! Wish I knew why spewgoots keeping trying to kill me! Bloody hate them too, fugly looking things! Them and renaults, truely hiddeous cars!

Back of the net!!

How did I miss this project! Stunning little MA mate, and glad you decided to get her repaired after the crash. Really top work there! Some stunning mods you've done too, starting to see a lot more sweet pre-Facelift civic m's here now. Keep up the good work! PS: Lovin the number plate lol

Well, thought yesterday it was time I got Ruby insured again so she can go out for a little spin now and then. my renewal before I sold her a few months back was £340 F/C, so was expecting the same again. Called the same company (Aviva) and got a quote........................£795!!! WTF! I said ye and did I mention its a 20 grand Rolls Royce I'm insuring pal, not a 2 grand tops civic! So even he though it was a bit nuts, but that was the best they could get it at...............or was it???? He said the reason was that I'd used my NCD on Lexy, so Insuring Ruby with none was like starting from scratch. But he had a plan! After much clicking of his keyboard later, he came up with this. Get Lexy insured with them, he'll do a multicar policy and see if it works out cheaper. I said that she was already insured with Honda, as Aviva gave me a higher quote for her at the time. But went and gave him all lexys details again to see what happened. He said after a bit more typing, "hmm, that's a bit better". He then hit me with £480 FC. I said but I'm only paying £325 for Lexy just now, so although you've dropped the price of Ruby, it's still too much for Lexy. I said is that £480 each? Nope, £480 all in for both!! Bloody result! He'd mirrored my NCD from Lexy, so both got the discount. Only difference is that with Ruby, I can't protect the NCD, whereas on Lexy it is protected. Not too fussed, as that to me seemed like a cracking deal! I was gonna call our traders, but wanted her insured like there and then so went ahead with it. The only prob was I'd have a cancelation fee from Honda Happiness. Turns out it was only £30, and I'm getting £196 back from them for unused insurance! So almost £200 coming back! Means Ruby has cost......£280 in theory! lol I'm a happy bunny! Took her out for a spin, and just got onto the outside lane of the dual carrigeway...............and almost got annihilated by some stupid young girl in a Peugot 206!! I'm doing 70mph, she's doig around 50mph and cut right across in front of me, missing the front passenger wing by around 3cm's! I braked hard, swerved towards the barrier to avoid her. Thought fuck I've only just insured her and now shes gonna die in the barrier!! Needless to say, that bitch got the main beam, the horn on full blast and a mouthfull of profanity from me. She was totally oblivious to everything! Felt like taking the bitch out! (and I don't mean to dinner!) Funny thing is, last time Ruby got hit (hit and run driver at the traffic lights) it was a girl in a peugot 206!! Reminded me how good the brakes are on the MB6's. So, can now get busy getting her match fit! And well impressed with Aviva!

There was an LPG hatch in here a long time ago, but never seen a deck done! Should be interesting! Glad to see you staying with the M's mate

Cheers bud, yeah she's coming together nicely. Got her insured for the year yesterday (got a bloody awesome deal from Aviva, see my thread in the general section!) so that's her back on the road. Need to replace the 2 front tyres, and trace a few rattles inside. Strip out centre console, replace the white plastic heater surround/mounting plate, and think she's about done! Garage (fingers crossed could hopefully be up in the next few weeks! Result! ) built it will be time for the suspension change to MeisterR's. Oh, and need her white stilletos back for the meet! Felt good driving here again!!

That looks hard as nails! love it!

lmao

lol price is £10. I must have hit the "1" twice when setting it up doh! lol

No limit on how many you can buy mate

That looks awesome mate! I've been thinking about one of them for a while now, always thought there had to be a bit modding to get the horn etc to work? Might go on the hunt for one now for Ruby! Sweet mod mate!

Time again folks, put forward the Civic M's you think are worthy to win this months car of the month competition! Found a Civic MB hatch in the forum that you think looks amazing?

Nice one mate, good to see the clubs current MA's, MB's and MC's staying in the club once sold. I'd say that was a good buy at that price!

LOL Deffo not resprayed mate. Only paint she's had were the rear arches. Really is unbelievably clean, feel really lucky to have her!

x2 And congrats on passing mate!

Photos in here mate. Unfortunately, she was all dirty by the time we arrived at the mini-mini-tiny-meet! lol http://civic5.com/forum/index.php?/topic/6725-kielder-forset-meet-monday-bank-holiday-27513/

Yeah, and don't you just hate the little comment that usually follows when an mb6 is broken for its engine........Putting the b18 in a "real civic! " Retards! If it was a real civic, it would have had a b18 in it from the start! lol Is sad to see the mint ones being scrapped though.

That looks sweet!

lol, tell me about it. A lot of really mint M's getting broken on ebay nowadays. Lucky for us we have our own breaker in the forum (1000rpm), so it's not all bad. At least we get all the parts we need at a decent price. But yeah, I'm the same, could spend all day rumaging around a breakers!! Some of the smashed cars you see make you think how the hell did anyone get out of them! Oh meant to add, anyone looking for any M bits near edinburgh, Sports car breakers at newbridge have a deck in, and two or three 5 doors. No engines in any of them, mainly body parts/interior parts left, plus suspension/brakes etc.

Another wee update! Been to the breakers today, as I needed to get the centre console for ruby due to the damage caused on her own one. Forgot how much of a pain these are to get out, the two screws at the handbrake being a huge pain in the ass! 4 Civics later and I finally got one out! Then it turns out it's not the console I need, it's the heater surround! So had to take it out, then use an torque bit to remove the controls so I could get it out of the car!! Huge pain! Now i have that to look forward to all over again when i remove Rubys fecked bit! lol Also picked up the rear arch rubber protector strips. A lot of people don't like these, but I think that if our civics didnt have them from new, there would hardly be any MB's left on the road as the rears would be rotten! They stop the paint on the arch lips from getting stone chipped, which rusts quickly. When Ruby came back, her arch trims were gone, so got good set today. As long as you keep them clean, and take them off every few months to clean out, the arches last a lot longer. Also picked up some other parts for one of our members across in France (Mae) so will get them posted off asap too. So all in all, a productive little day!

I'll have a look into that this weekend mate, see the in's and outs of it with this forum platform

haha! yup, set it as default and removed the previous one. Glad its had a good response so far, been a huge learning curve trying to get the look right. And your right Nick, deffo more like our old style now!

cheers chaps! Yeah, makes the front look so much better! So happy to find her so clean behind the scenes so to speak, will make turning her into a show car so much easier and worthwhile. B) Yeah mate, deffo keeping Sexy Lexy! Ruby and DeeDee will live in the new garage, while the FN takes on the daily driving duties. Actually loving the FN now that I know Ruby is back where she belongs! lol I'll bring Lexy to a meet too sometime
