Nearly 10 years old and passes MOT

[turbo5]

I have owned my Facelift DC5 Dec 2004 since August 2005 and I am proud to say it passed it's MOT without any advisories this week. It's my daily drive so its not a garage queen, A lot of modern cars are approaching the scrap yard at 10 years of age. Considering I paid £18K for it, the depreciation is brilliant. A new Mondeo ST was similar cost at the time of purchase today it would be a £1K banger .

Hi.

In agreement. Amazing motor cars. Pre facelift here. Registered 1st August 2004. Purchased from Japan Feb 2010 with 33000 miles, Total outlay then, £1300. One MOT failure. Suspension drop link fractured. Unfortunately I had no idea it had gone.

Well pleased with this vehicle. Only other vehicle on the horizon at present to replace it would be the new Civic R.

Regards.
