Default Aparently I'm thoroughbred fanatic.

No tech at all. I just wanted to gloat.

This morning I spoke to my mom on MSN. They moved to France a while ago, and she is looking for a new car. She has a shitty old Fiat now, that needs to die.

So she was looking on the internet for a while now, browsing through some ads. So, she asked me if I would be willing to check a car out for her. Since it's near to me, and she thinks I know a thing or two. Reluctantly I agreed.

I almost had a heart attach when I opened the ad. Here are a couple of pictures.












I've seen this car around a couple of time, and as far as I could tell it's just as clean in real life as it is on the pictures. It's one of just 20sonething EE9's left on the dutch roads.

I can see myself inheriting that beauty if she takes good care of it.
Let's hope I can push her into buying it. I'm so proud of my mommy right now!

so...because it has ugly wheels, and a double exhaust, an -original- low mileage , rust free, clean EE9 (wich in itself is rare to begin with) is now a riced out POS.

You must be of the 2006 crew.

[looks to check] Yup. You are.

Yes I'm pushing her as hard as I can. I want to go check it out this week.

My mom driving a 160hp B16 shopping kart. Almost makes me giddy.
It has some ricer crap under the hood. Tenzo valve cover, blue accents. I'll probably trade that all off for OEM parts, paint the cold air intake flat black, give the bay a thorough steam cleaning and call it a day.

Haha at the 06 joke.

Nice car, loose the exhaust and it's practically mint. Amazing find. I don't like the hood really, but it suits the car tho!

Yes, it is a rarity. Especially in this condition. (Say Hi to Mike and Marjolein for me)

It's selling for around 4 grand.

Damn i cant believe how clean those seats are. Ive only seen 2 pairs of EE/EF 9 seats that clean and the other pair is owned by an H-Ter.

You must force your mom into buying that car......now

Mmmmmmm...... tasty.

You must convince your mother of Honda's superiority over Opel and Citroen so she buys that thing. Compare it to a SmartCar or something that it will absolutely destroy .

BTW, is that hood style the new euro trend? I seem to be seeing it all over on cars on the other side of the pond.

I don't have to convince her of anything. I don't think it's coming across.

SHE found this car BY HERSELF.

It's a matter of convincing her she "needs" it, and make her free up some cash.
