Ok, So I'm not really a newbie!

Had my first DC5 way back and have taken far too long to get back again.
In my defence it's all been Honda in the meantime.
EK4 economical runabout
Uk DC2
CRX VTI

and now back with a CW DC5.

I've waited patiently for this particular car. Life got in the way and blew out last year so I'm pretending it's only 6 months.
Peter if you're reading, those wiper blades are out of order! :lol:

Anyways.
The details
51 plate full cpack and all the extras

Plus Mechanically well maintained by Tdi then Unit 8

With assorted mods.

Mugen Exhaust
Buddy Club Header
RBC
Gruppe M
Kpro
Spoon Springs
? brand rear camber adjusters and FRSU
DEFi gauge pod
Mugen pedals

The mods / service record really are a credit to the previous owner.
My turn now to add to that with restoring the exterior to it's former glory.

feel like I belong here again! 8)

Your welcome to call in at work for a brew and chat when your passing. 2 mins from junction 29
Assorted stickers / cover plates/ printed carbon fibre on tap. 8)

Car is now cleaned... then uncleaned by rain. tucked up in the garage ready for a rinse in the morning and a play with the DA
and cutting compound of some sort. Though if it's dry i'll just go out for a blast.
Before and after cosmetic post is required I think.
Nothing to do on the mechanics / mods front as the previous owner did the business there.

May the car give u as many more years trouble free motoring that it gave me. Didn't bother me much selling the car, it was only when u drove off it kinda hit me a little bit....lol.
Oh well, hope the new car will be just as fun.

it also has the Spoon front and rear strut bars and official Mugen oil cap :)

Cheers. I'm sure it will.

What brand are the camber adjusters?

Let me know when you get the merc and i'll call over sometime when I've finishing polishing the teg.
Looking like it will come up a treat without too much hard work, plus the front wheels weren't too bad and will be fine till next year.
