With those sort of miles I think £8.5k would get you a decent one now. Average mileage ones would be about £7k.

I liked the look of this car

Shame I can't read Japanese to find out if it was a runner or not.

I'm assuming thats a massive scorch mark at the back?

If it is then i would steer clear... i would bet you'd have no end of electrical issues if it got fixed.

I'm guessing that would be £14-15K on the road here...Maybe even slightly more.

Not a fan of the all white Mugen rear lip though, The 'diffuser' section would have to be resprayed gloss black for me.

Good choice on the diffuser man, Can't wait to see it all done.

£10-11K That's a seriously good price all things considered.

I'm loving this CL7 Accord Euro R with Mugen bumper;

At a dealer in Japan, £3900/2003/60,000miles... Would make an awesome daily to keep the miles off the teg.

Guide price very hard to say but maybe in the region of £17K on the road in the UK, which if you think about it isn't bad for. Effectively new car .

Imported a couple back in 2008/09 that had 600kms on, another with 1100kms on. It's very strange to see a 6+year old car just look like new. Never stored outside just garaged - this will be the same if grade 5/A

That's way over priced mate - dealers +25% markup.

Would end up being £20K plus in UK

I doubt Dealers wouldn't put a 25% mark up on a car, a couple of grand at most.

I reckon you could pick up a decent fd2 for between 14-16k
