Hey Alex, I work in Kington Langley, but live in Trowbridge, so not far from you at all! Don't have my teg anymore though, sold it back in June and have a grey FK2 instead now :) , I'll keep an eye out though and give you a thumbs up if I see ya :)

Thanks for the replies chaps.... I always thought Facelift DC5's went for over 10k, but I guess it all depends on mileage/condition etc.... as far as fresh imports are concerned, I remember James saying how much money he had to spend on this car after he had picked it up from Torque GT for...

That's fair enough, what sort of price do you think I'm looking at for mine?

Hi All, I've had my DC5 for sale for a couple of months now (on the forums and Gumtree) and other than a couple of low offers and a p/x it's only had a small amount of interest. I've since uploaded it to eBay, Pistonheads and Autotrader where it's had a number of views (1400+ and 3 watchers...

My DC5 is up for sale!

Found it a lot quieter than the teg dude - when you're cruising around it's comfortable and not too stiff/harsh which is nice :)

Thanks for the feedback chaps, I don't normally write massive essays but wanted to share the experience as best I could! Gonna start a for sale thread soon for the teggy... not even had it a year! :(

Hi all, Yesterday I test drove the new civic type R at my local Honda dealership and I have to say I was very impressed! The car is a 65 plate in Polished Metal (Grey) and a GT model - with only 28 miles on the clock! So boring paperwork bit out of the way, we finally get to the car... opened...

I went to Combe on the 13th of February with Motorsport-Events, reasonable bunch of chaps there, quite strict so no overtaking in braking zones or on corners... Great for me as it's my first time on track in the teg and first time around combe... despite the weather it was a good day! Pic below...

Thanks for your reply Dave - I'll get them checked and let you know!

Hi all, For the second time now (in the last couple of weeks) my gearbox has started squeaking when moving the gearknob side to side... it's a pretty loud squeak and can be heard from outside of the car - also feels like there is a bit more resistance? The engine is switched off and I've just...

Hi all, I'm planning on boosting the teg in the not too distant future (spring/summer next year)... It's currently running 230bhp and setup for fast road/track. The plan was to go the whole hog and get it forged and turbo'd - I've been quoted just over 10kand have been told that should see...

Hi all, I asked Honda for a quote today and they want over £450 to fix the right bolster (including vat and fitting) and that's just the frame and foam (not the cover)!!!! I just found this on eBay and was wondering if anyone had done this themselves...

Hi all, Picked up my 2005 '55 teg a couple of weeks ago and I've noticed a burning smell at high revs (this is only with the windows open though). There is no smoke, performance is fine, oil consumption is fine, fuel economy is fine, no oil leaks... I've taken it to TGM where Tom confirmed he...
