Default Bought myself a new toy - DC5 Integra :)

Well managed to sell the beemer the other day and went and put a deposit on this little baby!! Owned one a few years back and fancied another one! This one is a 2001 51 plate with only 26k on the clock! Wasnt keen on the wheels in the pics but not bad in real life (they are lightweight things, only 6.9kgs or something???)

Pick it up saturday and can't wait!!

Couple of pics...!

ginge - I got it for 11k mate, i didnt expect it to be as mint as it actually is for that money!! FRS was on my list too but couldnt convince myself to get into a Ford again!!

Rab - insurance is ok mate, i'm paying Ł475 fully comp protected, im 28, full ncd and 3 points. That was with Adrian Flux.

Porkie - no worries mate, was aiming to get some track days in this year (total novice) but no worries if you want a go!

You won't regret that mate. NEVER known so much grip in FWD than in these

I'm DC2 at heart but just look at that!
