    Awesome cars , I had one , My advice would be to get it back to standard condition, that will definitely improve it a lot.
    ( PS I came up and bought your red Civic Type R a few years back, Now sold on, but was a good car)

    I've always loved the Mk2 Focus RS but it's a bit out of my price range so i settled for a MK7.5 Fiesta ST on a 17 plate. Great little car so far.

    bought my first entry level sandero in jan 21 for 7700 quid new. plus add ons. equivalent now 14000. in august 22 i ordered a new dacia automatic. it arrived july 23. handed over my two and a half year old sandero with 22500 miles on the clock to the dealer and collected the new one. being nosy i went onto their website and it was on there at 9200. went on the next day and it was sold. didn't seem like much depreciation to me. the sandero was car of the year in 2022, and was in the top 10 of the most reliable cars in a daily mail survey. read all sort of scathing comments on here about dacias from people who have never owned one but nothing but praise from people who have. you are actually buying a latest generation renault clio, with a different badge , and several thousands cheaper. if you order one now you will wait eight months . what does that tell you
