Decided to sell my daily driver and my pride and joy.

Car details

Honda Civic VTi-S
1998 on an R plate.
75,000 miles
1.6 16v DOHC vtec (B16A2) 160hp. 0-60mph in approx 7.6 sec
Standard unmodified example
Only 1 previous lady owner.
12 months MOT for the new owner.
Tax expires end of august (from memory)

History behind the car
The VTi-S is a limited edition car with only 200 ever made, this is rarer than the Jordan edition.

Differences between the vti and the vti-s
Air conditioning as standard
Front splitter
Rear splitter
Mid boot spoiler.
VTI-s boot badge
All came in a limited edition paint just for the VTi-S, starlight black.
Different wheels, speedline Chrono's.
Badged floor mats
Aluminum engraved gear knob.

I first saw this car when it came into where I work for an MOT. I asked the receptionist to mention to the customer that I'd be interested in buying it, the owner said its rare and he's had it since new and had no intention of selling it. I sent him a posted letter expressing my interest in the car, 6 months later I got a reply saying his wife can no longer drive it due to her poor hips as the seating position is too low for her to get in and out. I went round, agreed a price, then drove it home. It was immaculate, 47,000 miles, loads of history, and had the original bill of sale for 17k.

I've had it for almost 2 years, regularly serviced it as im a qualified technician and kept it standard and clean, its regulary washed and polished. My classic mini turbo project is almost finished, hence the sale. I've bought a cheap Toyota corolla for commuting, mini will be weekend fun.

Id like to see it go to another enthusiast who would keep it as I have.

Located: near Melton Mowbray/Leicestershire
