Hi Folks,
Thought I'd get a thread up for my latest purchase :) I recently bought this off a friend who didn't have the time to restore it - it's a UKDM 1986 BA2 Prelude GSi, one of only a handful left according to the DVLA records! I bought it with a mullered clutch and flexi, plus some boots need replacing to get it through MOT and there's some rust that needs attention. However, it was a £300 car and I couldn't say no to something unusual, especially as I have a CA5 Accord GSi which this goes quite nicely alongside! Anyway, here are some pics for the time being until I start typing up what's happened with this car so far (not much :lol: )
Collecting from my mate

I can't wait to get this car running, I can only imagine how much fun it's going to be from having driven my Accord!!
