    Class! What's the spec on it, I see the sunroof and stuff. What's it like inside, is it an ES?

    Thanks :) Its an SES, I think all the 1.8 saloons are the same spec which is decent to be fair.

    The dash is lovely I must say, I'l post a few pics tomorrow. If its allowed in this thread! Some of the best stuff...

    Cruise control
    Aircon
    Climate control
    Velour seats
    Sunroof
    VSA (Vehicle Stability Assistance)
    Front and rear parking sensors
    Dash mounted stereo controls
    Heated electric mirrors
    And other stuff i cant remember....

    The engine is a beaut. Its got a nice balance of grunt and refinement.

    :D

    That 1.8 iVtec engine is remarkable.

    138 BHP and 40+ MPG combined.

    One of the best naturally aspirated engines out there.

    It's not the most powerful of yokes, but the fuel economy is very good considering I'm driving

    Not sure on specs but its a completely different set up to the UK models, if you look up the 5th Gear comparison the JDM car absolutely destroys the UKDM car. Like, many seconds, not just one or two faster around the track.

    Yes the do :) All the Saloons had fully independent rear suspension. Even the 1.8 has it.

    Yes, yes it is Silver but seeing it in person I think it suits the car. He was originally going to go for the Metallic brown but decided against it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,730 ✭✭✭✭CianRyan


    Good choice on the brown.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,815 ✭✭✭✭Dord


    Good choice. The only car I ever saw that brown suited was a Merc W123. Like this below;

    It was a common enough color for Merc and Porsche.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,102 ✭✭✭dar83


    If it's that Ford Lunar Metallic I'm thinking of, it's actually quite nice and much cooler than Silver. (but anything is, really)
