Default silver car questions



Having a blonde morning this morning, just a couple of Q's

1) what would be a the going rate for a UK RX7 on an N-plate......saw one, totally standard, this morning going to work, and must admit it is one of the best looking cars i have seen in a long time. Do they do a normally aspirated one? (if i wanna keep my sensible hat on )

2) Saw a grey civic this morning, on a T-plate, 3 door hatch lowered on rims, didnt have any badges on it, just wondering what the model name is for the sporty civic of this era, had recaros fitted and few trick bits so figured it was a good one, just wasnt a Type-r (as they are all white.....and it didnt have type R badges ) was a cracking looking little car though

I know VERY little about Jap cars but maybe looking into replacing the fiesta next year, but no more RS's for a while, as budgets limited and would need to drive it to work each day

There was a UK 1.6 VTi [approx 158bhp] that covered the T plate, a couple of special editions and a few jap variants but most likely it was the UK version messed about with.
