So I finally bought one! Gone and bought my first 'grown up' car at the age of 38! :lol:

Left a deposit on this 03 Type S saloon today.

3 owners, 125k but fsh, paint's in really good shape, just a scrape on the back bumper from someone dragging something in or out of the boot, and a few to be expected stone chips on the front bumper, but no dings or dents in any metal.

Wheels could do with a refurbeventually, they've been painted over some scuffs, but no really nasty gouges. Might get them done in gold/bronze....

Picking it up tomorrow, and very much looking forward to it. :)

Plans for it extend as far as refurbing the wheels, and if I can ever find the time/be arsed, to dechrome the window trim and the grille surround, or maybe get a mugen copy grille. So it'll probbaly just stay as it is then. :lol:

Means the CRX can get even more hardcore! :D

Pics nicked off the ad..

Cheers! Yeah, it's exactly what I wanted colour and wheels wise from a stock one. Rear tints are a bonus. Subtle cosmetic mods will be the way forward. No point looking for more power when the CRX is shortly going for a full engine tear down and rebuild with a B18C4 head on the B20B3 bottom end, new T3/T4 turbo and obviously a remap. Expecting well over 300bhp and 300lbs torque at half a bar of boost and to be running faster quarters than the 12.6 it has run previously! Might have to cage it eventually! :lol:
 
B18C4 head on the B20B3

Errrrrr, WOOOOOOOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 Mate that's gonnma be one serious machine!!!!! Add a couple of bar of boost, and you'll be smiling so much your face might fall off!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

agreed, Nice car, nice colour and like simon said the CRX updates and photos are more than welcome too :lol:
 
Lovely looking car fella
 
Good job buddy, you got one in a cracking colour too. You're right about setting about to de-chrome the window trim, it makes such a difference. B) Have fun with it buddy, sneak a short ram intake under the bonnet so you can hear the i-vtec sing too :lol:
