I'm thinking about getting an old Civic, probably a gen 6, will I have trouble getting spares, not just consumables but stuff like suspension arms, bushes, and other breakable bits. Am I worrying too much, or should I avoid such an old car?

It's not finding spares for an MB or an EK that would be worrying me, it's the condition of the underside, they were horrendous for corrosion
even back in the day when they 4 or 5 years old, finding one that's not rotten will be your main challenge.

Does anyone know where to possibly get a Head Gasket kit for a 2.2 Prelude, its a Year 2000 car?

Or any websites or companies that potentially have new old stock etc?

TIA

I had one before that died of rust, they were cheap and plentiful then! I think these days any that survive will have been looked after, so shouldn't be too rusty. Fingers crossed!
