DAMN! That's nice. Definitely a keeper for auto insurance purposes LOL!

But seriously, they're not easy to find in that condition. If you were really looking for one of these as mint as that, then someone might pay it. :)

I wonder how much Hertz charged customers to rent this car? You show up expecting a C300 or a Taurus and instead you get the keys to this baby...

At the risk of making this one seem just a bit on the expensive side, today I bought a one owner 82 Accord EX 4 door with only 50k genuine miles. Metallic beige, but I suppose you can't have everything. I was in London for the weekend, saw it and had to have it. Immaculate (but still beige). Drove the 130 miles home at a solid 75 mph and it went like a dream. I think the only things it needs are the aircon regassing, one tyre pumping up, a mudflap reattaching, and a bit of magic on one of the electric window switches. Not bad for 28 years old. I spent the first hour listening to a German classic hits radio station before I found the FM button on the stereo. When I was 20 I saved for a year to buy one of these and I think I am as excited now as I was the day I got that one (no doubt the excitement will wear off when I have to find parts... but that's where you guys come in, right?) I'll post pictures if anyone is interested in seeing what £700 buys in the UK?

Great website, by the way. Some really nice looking cars on here, even if the four US headlights look very strange.

Hi! :welcome: That's a great story. You should definitely post some pics of your car!! We'd love to see it! When you're used to the 4 headlights, the European headlights look quite odd. But I'm converting mine over. :)

You have to upload to a hosting site, imageshack, picasaweb, etc, and then hotlink them over here inside (image tags)
