I see the RNB one on page 7 is listed as having a sunroof . I don't fancy an import to be honest, I work in Shetland and don't have much time off to travel down south, I would prefer to keep it local..ish. Thanks

If you're price for the Civic is reasonable, you will save yourself a lot of hassle getting the car local.

One thing to be aware of is servicing/repairs - there are only 3 dealers in scotland I'd let my S2000 near, and they're all in Glasgow and Edinburgh. The dealers in Inverness and Aberdeen sell so few that I doubt they work on them much, and aren't well equipped to deal with it's idiosyncracies.

I travel up North a lot, and if anything went wrong with mine, it'd be on a flat bed down south before Macrae & Dick/Dicksons could get their hands on it.

Be careful if it has been used as a demo car. They will have been ragged from the beginning and not run in properly. <ay be worth asking the question
