'06 diesel Civic, 2.2. Goes like a rocket but has a clutch made of chocolate.

Brillo pads, like any enthusiast would use :pac:

I was going to say something at the time but thought it was rude.

He'd have the EGR clean as a whistle too :pac:

With the current state of the roads I'd say about 6-8 mins depending on potholes :pac:

Very sorry to go OT,

But what set up is in those, are they full time awd with centre diff lock?

Does it have a low range box?

Comfy bus id say though, surely a lot less agricultural than mine

Merrion · 23-03-2013 1:04am

Perfect for this weather....

Full time AWD.

Quadra Drive II, has low range. Two ELSDs.

It's comfy alright, no more than your own though I'd reckon, it's the Merc V6 so not too bad diesel rattle wise, unmistakably diesel though, especially off boost.

Now thats a pretty impressive system, :eek: certainly well capable where grip is low, couple that with some A/T's and that machine could put it up to some tough terrain.

Id love to have lockers, have a rear lsd in mine, but its not the mae west, surprisingly it does still work, but not in any way compared to a locker.

/OT

Here's another pic to keep with the thread and for good measure, hit a little puddle down a back-road one day :pac:

Class! Jealous of your Webasto.

Here's ours out for a bit of fresh air last week.

166man · 23-03-2013 10:42pm

A few of the more recent snaps of my own yoke

Down in West Kerry last week

Doing a fairly major clean on it the last few days, badly needed. Wash, detar, clay, polish and two coats of AG HD Wax. Tyres washed and dressed too along with all the glass.

On the passanger door there it's under a coat of wax..not scratches for you eagle eyed folk!

Really like this picture, what's that in the background?

:D

Alfa 159 you say? We've got one of them too...;)

Not the best pictures by any means but I'll get decent ones soon!

:cool:

Quickelles · 23-03-2013 11:02pm

lovely merc

transam · 23-03-2013 11:06pm

im impressed , shes the sports wagon

whats it like ? and shes a diesel;)

Tragedy · 24-03-2013 3:41am

I'd love a 159 but a decent specced one in Ireland is rare and they attract a relatively high VRT rate when imported (especially compared to e.g. a saab 93 or new shape Mazda 6).
