  1. I need another! Are these both the 4cylinder?
  2. Missed this post first time round, so only just catching up. Glad you're saving another. I note that on 'How Many Left' there are only 174 on the road now, with a similar number on a SORN. That's down about 20% on the previous Quarter. I love the rarity of these cars. Hopefully spares will continue to be available.
  3. I insured my Vectra last year with Aviva and when I sold it , transferred the Honda to this policy. They wouldn't take it on because they stated it over 20 yrs old. I complained and got my renewal back.
  4. Hi George, great to see you've found the forum. I'm not the most technical guy here, look out for Hughzee.(aka Stu), but always available for an opinion or 3 on lots of subjects. I was featured (ahhheem😆😆😆) in the recent Classic Retro Modern mag, with my 3.0V6 . Photos featured elsewhere on this site. Please post some photos of your projects. I'm no mechanic or engineer..what is an I Mech E?
  5. great Stu, please message me direct, I'm sure you have my contact details on file. Let me know how much, etc
  6. I would love a boot trim, if anyone has one.
  7. An AC engineer came round the other day and found the leak that others couldn't find. It's the seals in the dryer unit in front of the condenser. I suppose they've been in there 24 years. Didn't want to be charged 2hrs labour to get the bumper on and off, so I'll do that myself. Any excuse to do the little jobs like unseizing the headlight bulbs that had got stuck, and scrubbing up the bumper bar.
  8. No, I'm afraid I'm not in it this month.😆😆
  9. May I ask how much they charged you? My local garage charges about 95quid, blaming the cost of the gas, etc, using the Bosch system. But it only lasted 6 months, and my garage spotted no leaks either. There must be a leak somewhere.
  10. To be honest, it's the first time out shopping since being released from Covid Castle.
  11. Sainsbury's. Any excuse to take the Coop out. That's where I've been.
  12. Hey Stu. Did you get stung by any customs duty on arrival? Also, how were you taking the readings for the air intake?
  13. They do a subscriber edition and newsstand edition. The former has an Abarth steering wheel on the front cover, and no text.
  14. Some clever sod needs to write in to the 'I think you'll find' section...... 🤣
  15. Great stuff! Not had my copy yet. Looks like there are no cuts to the words, either!
  16. Have you seen the other Accords listed on that site? A 96 coupe, a 2000 4cyl, a 96 estate and a couple of 2nd gens too.
  17. Ask 'em why! Probably confusing UK with Ukraine. I've heard that before.
  18. I was already in Issue 8, with my Ford Streetka. The deputy editor lives in Devon also, and he came to see me for that edition. He loved the Accord, especially the rear end, and the Accord name on the spoiler. But the words are all mine. Unless the Ed starts cutting and pasting.
  19. My Accord will be featured in the next edition of this Classic. Retro. Modern. magazine, out on 1st April. (Yes, seriously). Should be a couple of pages and photos!
  20. My pump was knackered / seized, and replaced it 2 years ago with the Amazon Chinese copy, which fitted easily. Still going strong today! Originals are quite expensive, or unobtainable I believe.
  21. I paid £168 with Churchill last year. Ohhh yes...... Thought that was pretty good. I remember when I was selling car insurance for the Co-op Ins many years ago, that insurers look favourably on second cars, which mine is. It's still got a 5,000 mile limit, bit of business use ,wife driving as well, and not even full NCD either. But I stand the chance of them paying market value if i wreck it though. My age helps!! (late 50s ish)😁
  22. Remind Stu, what PAS fluid are you using?
