25th Anniversary Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 (edited) Well i bought my 25th Anniversary in 1998 (was 1 year old) Kept it till 2002 (bought a brand new Honda s2000 GT) Then whilst looking through a local newspaper, i saw the exact same car for sale in 2006! I couldn't believe it, whats the chances of that! Didnt tell the guy i bought it back from that i used to own the car, but he twigged when he saw my name on all the old service receipts etc!lol So technically, i have owned the car for 10 years haha Im never gonna let her go again,ahem to that.

roy newton Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Why did you skip the best gen? 2 years, 3 months for me. Currently having problems, so don't know how much longer! I had to buy a hi ace van at the time and the best deal i could do was px the gen4. Have driven many gen5 and must agree with you, missed a vert on a k plate two years ago (it looked as if it had just come off the production line !) i dithered too long. One of my customers has a red gen5 on a J plate (been making him offers for years) that has only done about 8000 MLS which he only drives on high days and holidays in fact he passed me today lovely sunny day. Nearly won this but wallerwaller is the winner so far 15/11/2001 first owner in the uk I think that makes 10 years 7months:) Mind you she looked a little different back then I have owned my gen 6 at200 15yrs this month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
