I actually learnt to drive in one, fantastic fun to drive those yokes.

They do look like great craic in fairness, and I'd say their nippy enough with the small engine because they are so light.

Dr Turk Turkelton · 09-02-2016 11:23PM

So I picked this up at the weekend...

Had one almost twenty years ago as my first car and have wanted another one since.:)

GvidoR · 09-02-2016 11:37PM

I love CR-X's. That one looks like it's in a great shape too. Looking forward to more pics and info on it.

Yeah it's in quite good shape. Needs a bit of tidying up mainly the interior but not to much.
Will get some pictures when the weather gets a bit better but between work and the weather I've hardly seen it yet.
Still get a big dopey grin on my face every time I think of it though.

You going to go for a classic policy on it?

Yeah as it's twenty five years old and will only be used for a runabout for myself at the weekends. Can't see Mrs Turkelton getting into it. She has been giving me some very funny looks the last couple of days.

Well wear

They are a lovely car, that one looks as if it's been minded.

AndyBoBandy · 10-02-2016 08:03AM

CR-X is the first real car (I could potentially have) that I fell in love with.

Never had one, but damn I thought (and still do) they were sexy.

Slideways · 10-02-2016 08:16AM

Well wear Turk. There was a Mugen powered one around my town when I was a young fella. It had some note off it

So the straight pipe on the V8 was getting to me on long runs. Dynamated the floor, rear walls and doors. It's made a big difference. Hands are cut to shreds from the ally foil :-/

Do you know what's a difference in car's weight now?

Slideways · 10-02-2016 02:26PM

21kg

Not a lot in a 4x4 that weighs nearly 2.5ton :pac:

joujoujou · 10-02-2016 02:30PM

True, nothing major in a heavy 4x4.

Thanks.

Was it the one on DoneDeal with the read and black recovered seats?!

Any chance you could let us know how you get on with the Classic Policy on her, I really had an itch recently to have one of these with my DC2 :pac:
