A few of you know the car. I've not owned it for very long but the quality of the build, the refinement and the specification is simply superb.

I'm interested in a straight swap or part/ex with cash my way. Whatever you have it needs to be capable of daily duties and occasional track work

What have you got guys? :D

Anything guys? :)

I know it's unlikely but todays track day @ Snett, pratting around in a prepared Saxo of all things, has put the biggest grin on my face.

It does need to cover daily duties so whatever I have needs to be reliable. It also needs to be a laugh, as life is just too short. As great a day to day car as the Lexus is, I can't help feeling that something sportier will tick more boxes............

Spread the word :thumbs:

It's the prospect of using one from day to day mate..........not really the sort of thing that a guy of my age, size and career wants to drive for an all rounder :)

I can't be bothered with buying a track special again. Been there too many times and I fancy a laugh rather than more grief.

Been offered some cracking swaps

Modified MR2 Turbo's
An Accord type R
A Legnum twin turbo
Mk1 and mk2 MX-5's with track mods :D

Time will tell............

What's stopping you?
I've had a few of these (as company cars when I worked for a Honda main dealer). What an awesome car and what an awesome noise at full chat :coolgleamA:
What box's doesn't it tick?
