Looking very nice mate.

I've got a DC2 ITR myself, I love driving my car, but it does look very dated when compared to a DC5. I may trade it in for one of these in a few years time, when I want a newer car.

Wow, thats a great price.

Do you have to use octane booster for 100 octane, or does it run ok on our super unleaded?

My Prelude Vtec loves Tesco 99 octane, but it drinks its much faster than any other super unleaded!!
