not for sale.....!

where do you propose to get a rear bumper, have you parking sensors? going to cost you a fair whack.

its going to be hard to get, not many 250s in the uk let alone Ireland. best bet is probably the north or get one from ebay in uk or such

My car here in Thailand.A Honda City 1.5(type Z,Lxi ).Its from year 2002 ,manual ,power steering ,petrol and LPG gas .Second hand cars here more expensive than Ireland ,but parts and labor for servicing and repair much cheaper .Car cost me 2,400 Euro last month .Also compulsory 3 rd party insurance ,and road tax under 100 Euro per year .LPG gas is around 45 cent /B16 a liter.Even though its now 13 years old ,there is hardly any rust underneath,due to them not having to use salt on the road ,due to the climate.
P.S, I am not sure if its the same shape as the Honda City of the same year in Ireland ? I know that the Honda Civic over here is much different .The equivalent of the NCT over here is a joke .They only test exaust and brakes.I also have a Nissan NV 1600 ,pickup ,18 years old which has never failed the test .lol

Hachiko ,Yes ,import duty on private import of car or motorcycle over 100% here .There are plenty of old Mercedes and BMWs about but usually with a transplanted Japanese engine .

Hachiko, I feel your pain.

Same in the grounds I park mine, 3 particular drivers have absolute heaps and are terrible drivers. I literally cry when I see that they have parked beside mine as they have no regard for other peoples doors. ****ing bastard *****

lenzo rs5's are a bit of a max power wheel imo, a bit like katanas or venoms, although the rs5's have probably aged to be much less offensive than the wolfrace. they suit the mini though, i'd say that car would be lovely with a good scrub

I've gained 1 mpg due to my weight saving measures :pac:

What happened to the bumper, nd?

my 'new' alloys. Looks much better than originals. Gunmetal anthracite (dark grey metallic) pearl paint.

That's lovely, good job man

the back ones are bigger than the front, thankfully i don't have to buy tyres very often. I never noticed the caps at all.

I am looking at getting springs or coils. Jury is still out however. Dont really trust the roads enough.

I think once you don't go for the slammed look you should be ok. I find the car just as comfy now as it was before to be honest.

It's only on bad surfaced roads where you will notice the lowering springs/standard shocks combo isn't as comfy
