After my Aygo was sold I bought a Kia Proceed. I didn’t really like it so after a year I bought an Audi A6. After a year, the timing belt snapped grenading the engine. Needing a new car, the only Japanese one that I could afford was this Civic.

It’s a decent car that I enjoy driving. Just a shame that the dealer sold it to me with a rear axle that was so badly corroded it was about to snap!

After replacing the axle, fixing some minor issues and giving it a full service, the modifications can begin!

After I returned the GS450h, I needed a new daily driver. I already had the Aygo for track usage, so I wanted something more Luxury. I saw these and wanted one!

I bought this car to be my racing project. A small cheap car that I can work on with an aim to enter the CityCar cup. It was reasonably cheap, and came with an LPG conversion.

It’s just a shame that it’s not exactly reliable at the minute.

UPDATE: I sold it. Saves me spending any more money on it!
