Ive had a VTR and VTS al though I loved both they both caused me to much problems..
Could probably push to £5k just for the car to whoever said about insurance, dont really care about how much insurance is, jsut want somethin fairly nice and newish

Well said lad
Saw an Accord Type-R on the trader today for 4.5k, FSH on a 99 model, cheap as you like. Now then, when is that NCB coming for me?!
