Picked her up a few weeks ago after waiting nearly a month for it to enter the country. Bought from Torque GT in Devon, I dealt with Mike and have to say the service was excellent, the car was exactly as described (good job as it was a 400 mile round trip).
Three days after I collected it Cat 1 alarm was fitted then the next day it went to the mechanics for, ahem deep breath, cambelt, tensioner, valve clearance, water pump, gear box oil, underseal and a full service including all fluids and filters.
I've just spent the weekend giving it it's first proper clean comprising of wash, de-tar, clay, rotary polish, glaze, sealent and wax. Didn't have time to do anything other than the paint so that'll have to wait for now.
Could also do with going over with a finishing polish as I've spotted a couple of buffer trails and holograms in direct sunlight.
Next on the list is to get the wheels re-furbed as there a bit discoulered and have more of a mat finish at the moment.
Anyway here's a few pics

What is the RX variety? I wasnt aware of any special editions, though no doubt a few existed in Japan.

I had the UK variety and was a massively fun car, looks good.

I think the RX's were the last of the DC2's to be made so Honda threw in a few extra's, they have auto folding wing mirror's, aluminium pedals, six speaker stereo, tinted rear windows and keyless entry.

No trackdays in the near future but I'd like to do at least one before the end of the year, if only just to get a feel for it at the limit which to be honest you can't sensibly get near to on the road at least not in my hands.
It's back in the garage at the moment anyhow, on the way back from work last night the aircon belt decided to throw it's self off and take the pulley with it, I stopped straight away opened the bonnet and saw the belt still in one piece but hanging slack and the pulley at a jaunty angle, I cut the belt off and carried on my way albeit a bit more sweatily, took it to the garage this morning.

Looks great. Dont think I've seen one a 'W' plate before.
Bought my Teg from Mike/Tristan too and had a very pleasant service. Didn't travel quite that far though hehe
