Ed's Hybrid

After spending two months of looking at Autotrader everyday not really knowing what I wanted, I have a new car and I'm coming back to Honda.

For those that don't know, after I sold the post FN2 ATR I bought a Saxo VTR for cheap motoring and TBH it had served me well.
But with a baby, I found three doors to be a pain and I needed something bigger.
I had a budget of £5,000 and off I went.

The car itself is 2006 55 plate Civic Hybrid. Its Executive spec so its got heated leather, ac, electric windows and mirrors.
Its only done 47,000 miles and the only previous owner was a security company. Going by the MOTs, its only done 5000 miles in the last three years.

It does have a dent on the rear 3/4 that I want to get pulled out but apart from that its mint and the best part is the £20 a year tax
 
I've not picked it up yet, I'm putting my licence plate on retention first.

Its got the same centre console as the EP3 so I may get a custom painted job done by Jimbobthemagnificent
 
So I take it your car was made 01-05 alongside the EP3 and then the one that shared the FD2 body was 06 onwards? I much prefer the style of yours it must be said.

Jimbo centre console is always a good idea.
 
No.

The spec is standard. No options.

MPG 50-55. Check tyre pressures regularly.

Tax double check the £20, mine was £30 Which you can still pay monthly :lol:

EP3 ISO radio connecter if you want to change the radio.
 
Finally got the retention documentation yesterday.

Picking up the car shortly.

Oh it was £20 tax for the year :)
 
So finally photos














Plans?

I've ordered a new Pioneer headunit and some 6.5in speakers
The oil and rad caps appear to be generic Honda items so I'll be on the lookout for some 2nd hand aftermarket items
There's some bodywork issues to take care of, nothing major.
Jake has been commissioned to do some centre console art for me
