Depends alot on condition obviously, but assuming it's a JDM G or G-Limited, probably £3.5-4k... Ask for a look in the engine bay for red cam covers and intake manifold.. :wink:


Looks in good clean condition, it's a UK car and she says they only made 10 in this colour in the UK - can't find anything to back that up. Had a look already and it's not a beams unfortunately! Is a T-bar with full leather though.

That one is champagne gold mate, looks cracking!
What size are the wheels and is it lowered?

Think i'll offer her somewhere between the 2 figures mentioned earlier.

I know one person with a champagne rev 5 JDM -it's not a very noice colour in my book (sorry mate). It's just horrid! Far too old-manny. The mica I can live with easy, subtley kitted one would look very good IMO but in my mind the champagne colour does very little for the SW20.

Maybe I am biased because I used to have one, but having had / seen other colours, I'd still love a Beige Mica car again.. I think people are put off by the 'beige', getting connotations of hearing aids and prosthetic limbs, but it's a colour which gives the Mk2 a more special feel.. It looks different in different light, taking on an almost silver look in sunlight.. I suppose it's quite a 'Japanese' colour 8)

Back on topic, the orange mica car is nice if you like the colour. Not a big fan personally, but you pay for exclusivity!

Hard to tell if that really is 'bronze' as everything in the photos look off colour :-k

It's a UK car too.

The 'UK' orange cars tend to just have the usual NA engine.
Just the imports with the Beams unfortunately!

That would sound right, if i had the money would consider it, especially if its the one in the add mentioned below, looks really good.

Is it this one? Targetted advertising on 4OD just tried to sell it to me http://glasgow.gumtree.com/glasgow/97/69375097.html

It has all the hallmarks of a UK car, aside from the nonsense Anniversary bit in the ad.
