    Well, Hello

    Anyone got a NS window regulator for sale ?

    Well, Hello

    I tempted fate, harping on about the reliable nature of the beast. Got into it at 11 this morning, fired up the AC and dropped both windows to help the initial cool down. Except the passenger window disappeared to the bottom of the door, under the influence of Isaac Newton's greatest find, gravity.

    Well, Hello

    While I might have got it cheaper elsewhere, another HONDA receipt in the folio can only be good, if and when I decide to move it on.

    Looks the same now as it did then, still shiny, cared for and apart from a dent on the front OS wing (my bad) in amazing condition for it's age. hey do last well, these Coupes.

    Well, Hello

    Just found this forum, after 5 years of 3.0 Coupe ownership. Bought "Ivy" from an old boy in the village where I live, one afternoon, while we sat in the pub garden. In breezed the Green car, which we all admired, and jokingly said we like your car John. His response was, well I have 2 (he did) and he left the keys behind the bar for me to take it for a run, the following day. It then had 88,000 on the dials, but was a sweet as sweet could be. A huge folder of receipts, for every service, tyre or bulb it had ever had. The price, a ridiculous £1200. I had at the time an 18 month old S type Jaguar, 2.7twin turbo diesel, bought at HUGE expense from a main dealer.That was costing me £350 a month, so after less than 4 months the Honda had paid for itself. Since then, it has just run and run, gone through a few consumables, one or two litres of fuel, but never once EVER let me down (unlike the Jag). I bought front discs from the US on a business trip for a fraction of the cost here, and those were probably the biggest expenditure. Honda dealers local to me have just done the cambelt (again) at 134,000 for a measly £220 fixed price. Another bargain. Today, I've done a 350 mile round trip to work, got out back home as fresh as I set of at 5 this morning. I brimmed the tank before I left, and again at work where it returned 35.6mpg. Slightly better than normal, probably due to the early start, and less traffic on the A1. It was shed of the week on Pistonheads, a couple of months ago, and although I trust it, and love it dearly, it will soon be replaced by my daughter's Mini One D, the fuel savings are just TOO good to miss out on. I'll miss it, when it goes.
