Hello all.

The Civic :

The new ride (def not a $1000.00 car, was a steal lol)

2002 Accord EXL 5 speed
240,000KM
Within last 3 months : New all seasons, snows and rims with it aswell, timingbelt, both upper arms and both lower ball joints, new pads all around with 4 wheel machining, and 4 new calipers, new stabs front and rear.

Last night I just did 4 spark plugs, and valve adjustment.

Car is mint, drives like new. Nice step up for my commute. All it needs is a Vent Shut Valve to cure the damn P1457 :|

Welcome, you got a great deal. Right place right time I guess. Those seats look brand new practically!

I had a bunch of Trans-Ams latest one I am sad to have sold (98 Ls1 6 Speed) but I commute 1000km a week so needed something more effienct, the civic was good, but not the safest thing and I wanted something with more luxury. Couldn't turn up this deal lol.

I'll snap some good pictures this weekend of the ol' girl.

Loving that AC doesnt really effect MPG lol, still at 500km and just touched half. Loving this car, working for Honda I drive a lot of new cars, but this car drives as nice as any of them!
