Default WayHay! I finally did it!

Picked it up about 10 days ago - but have just finally got round to taking some pictures (Albeit in fading light and with the car a bit dirty)

Fecking Love It - Can't stop smiling whilst driving it, the engine takes a bit of time to get used to, but now I don't know how I lived without 9,000 Revs It seems to do all its best work between 7 and 8.5 thousand revs

It's has the hardtop fixing kit already installed and has the accompanying Hard-Top, but it feels quite chlostrophobic with it on - but anyway the weather has been amazing since I got it so the Hood is permanently down.

Anyway I just thought I'd post up some picks because I'm dead chuffed with it after umming and ahhing over so many different cars and its excellent









p.s I don't know why the number plate looks so dirty! The flash is showing up stuff you can't see with your eyes....

Honda Warranty until Christmas

Original 16" Alloys (imaculate) also included

Hardtop and Stand.

Small dent in Front Wheel arch - being removed this week end for circa
