Okay, so this Turbo charged em2 is up for sale in the UK...


http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/258535.htm

There is also another link on that page for more pics. The price seems a little cheap. Is it a dodgy turbo job? What are your thoughts...

 

My mate works at Leicester Honda and i think they look after that car. I'm sure it was in for service/maintenance only a month or so ago.

From what my mate said, the car is a bit rough and hasnt been overly looked after.

 

Hmm, I thought so. Turbo's cost around 3k ( £ ) and taking that into account, its going for very very cheap. Something didnt add up...

P.s -Replied to pm mate

Yeah, i wouldnt touch that car with a barge pole.

PM also replied.

 

isnt 5000 pounds like $10K dollars? I know cars cost more in europe, but thats not a cheap car, even over in the US. I'd steer clear of any car that's been previously turbocharged and you dont know who did it.
Find a stock one, you boost it.

Yes, and cars cost around twice here what they do there. My '03 i just traded in was put up for $14,500 on the dealers lot.

 

oOooo...i like the tail lights, and lemme guess, is that extra light on the rear bumper some backup foglight or something??....not related to thread, but would those both types of lights fit on our US EM2's???

 

did you mean to say "Intellectual" in your thread title lol. sorry i was just in class

id steer clear from that car. why dont you ask him to take it to andys friends dealership again and have them check it out?

It wasn't just me then... lol

 

Am I the only one who thinks its odd they didn't even post a pic of the engine bay (to show off the turbo)???

Maybe I'm missing something...

EDIT: Yep I'm an idiot

...Guess I should have read into it more...

 

it's so weird to see a wrong hand drive 7thgen..

 

It's called "right hand drive", not wrong hand drive. It has a double meaning, the steering wheel is on the correct side of the car... which also happens to be the right hand side
