Posted By: Cosmo For Sale : Show car Civic - 2nd Jul 2004 2:59pm
Unfortunatly I am having to sell my Civic which is currently in the bodyshop having a complete job done on it....and I mean complete!! I have already spoken to the chaps at Max Power, and Fast Car and both have said that once it is done it is a guranteed cover car, so you can have your choice on who gets it!!

The car is about 4-5 weeks away from being complete, which still leaves you time to make any changes you may want...colour, slight mods to design, anything really!! I'm selling this car fully paid for, everything you read below is included and totally paid for already, so if you keep the same spec you wont have to pay a thing!

The spec is as follows....

1998 Honda Civic 1.4i Illusion Hatch, done 20,000 miles only!! I bought it with 18,000 on from an old fella, so has never been ragged around!

Exterior:
Totally custom and one off front bumper (I have pics of designs for anyone seriously interested)
Totally custom and one off rear bumper
Totally custom and one off side skirts smoothed into body
Custom wide arches front and rear similar to that on a dimma 306, never before done on a civic
VIS Racing Carbon fibre hood and rear wing (only ones in UK that I know of)
Honda S2000 Rear light conversion
New Chrome projector headlights
Genuine Bomex Mirrors
Smoothed Boot
Removed and smoothed door rubbing strips
Removed and smoothed door handles
Removed and smoothed roof gutters
Removed and smoothed aerial
Fuel filler relocated to door jam
Full colour change respray

Chassis:
The car was being fitted with 20" wheels, these can be bought with the car, or can choose not to have them. They are total one offs, drilled just for this car. They are Branzach's BZ11's in chrome. Only set in Europe, and only set that fit a civic in the world!!! They are wrapped in the best Yoko tyres money can buy! Worth over £5000 on their own!!
Full hydraulic system supplied by Rayvern hydraulics, giving full front, back, side to side movement!!

Cost:
As for costs, the parts alone have cost me nearly £13,000. And labour is another £7000+ ontop of that with all the custom work that has been done! Add to that the cost of the car and its cost me a total of £26,000+ so far!

Now I am not looking to re-coup all of that £26,000 as know that isnt posisble. So I am after any sensible offers over 10,000.


I can supply more info on costs, whats being done, pics etc. to anyone interested. Just email me and will send them straight out!! [email protected]

Pics.....

Firstly two wheel shots, look muh better in person!
[Linked Image]

[Linked Image]

This is the smoothed roof gutters
[Linked Image]

Smoothed sides, ignore the arches tacked on there, it was a previous idea but gone for the full custom wide arches now!
[Linked Image]

Smoothed boot...this was before the old lights were removed and the S2000 fitted
[Linked Image]

They are the best pics I have of the car at the moment....I have no pics of the custom front and rear bumpers, or arches yet as havent visited it since they have been done! But to give you an idea of thier design, the arches, and front and rear bumpers were based on this french 306, but have been chamged to be alot smoother!
Pics of 306 here...


As you can see its going to be a mad car once it is done, I've just had 1 to many problems to fully enjoy it anymore and just want to get some money back to move onto another project!!

Im not sure how many people will meet your asking price for an uncompleted car mate! why don't u wait 4 weeks until it is finished then u will get a whole lot more offers and probably more money!! just a thought!

How do you know what my asking price is confused smile

Reason I dont want to wait is because I just want rid. Have no car, and no money for another one until this is sold. If I have to wait another 4-6 weeks for the money its just more hassle again!!

Plus this was the person gets a chance to choose how they want the car finished...colour, etc.

no probs!

I was in two minds of whether to put it up now or wait, as didnt know what kind of interest it would get!

Its up on ebay with a decent reserve price, so if it doesnt reach that I'll wait until its finished. Hopefully though it'll sell and I can get on with the next project...can someone say full carbon bodied RX.... laugh

Nope, was going in for the body sorted first, then once it came out I had a b18c turbo engine swap lined up. But not doing that anymore!
