Unfortunately the time has come to sell my EK9. Owned it for around 2years and its been a great car. Super relaible and always puts a smile on my face. Car has always been ran on Shell V-Power.

1997/R Starlight Black. 112,000 miles. Still runs in KM. Still limited. Imported late 2008, i have all import paperwork and old MOT's. Im the 2nd UK owner.
Car currently has no Tax as its been parked up in my garage for the last 6 months but has a Long MOT till next year.

Parts replaced as follows;

-New OEM battery
-Front and rear brake pads
-Front ARB bushes
-Front lower balljoints
-Front stabiliser links
-Front upper suspension arms, bushes and balljoints
-All four wheels hubs/bearings
-Front outer tie rod ends
-NGK plugs & NGK blue performance leads
(All receipts are present)

Others;

-Fuchs ProS oil and Honda filter
-Amsoil MTF transmission fluid
-Coolant Flush
-J's Racing Intake
-Enkei wheels powdercoated CW, balanced and 2 new Uniroyal RS2 tyres fitted on rear.

Engine runs spot on, no smoke on VTEC and pulls very hard on cam. Gearbox has no crunches or funny noises, clutch has no slip. Engine oil changed every 4-5K along with transmission fluid. Car performs very well for a 1.6. Only the ARB links and 2 wheel hubs needed replaced but i decided to get the other parts replaced to freshen things up. Car handles really well. Cars never been on track and has been looked after very well. Always ran on Shell V-Power & top quality fluids. Reason for sale is i have bought another car so dont have use for 2 cars.

The Rear bumper has some paint cracks on the left corner and the front driverside wing has a small dent. Would cost around £150-200 to have painted but never got round to it.

I'm going to put the car up on PH for £4000 but have decided to put it up on EK9.org for £3800 in the hope an enthusiast will buy her. I think the cars priced very well.

Located in Edinburgh central,
Price is £3800

Please call me on 0750 602 8070

I may have forgot some stuff, if i have i will update the ad. Any Q's just ask.
:thanks: for looking...

GLWS ,its a shame ur selling mate,and y r u selling so cheap? yeh ok u have a bit of millage but,u have no smoke in vtec,no gear crunching,no rust on rear arches so y is this car at £3800 should be atleast £4800 in my opinion!!!
 
I'm looking for a quick sale so that's why it's up for cheap. Its a shame but 9s have dropped quite a lot in value recently so priced it at what I thought is fair. Mechanically the car runs spot on, it has a few cosmetic issues but nothing that bad for a car of it's age.

But if I hadn't already bought another car it would be up for a lot more. Cheers
 
Will post pics this weekend or hopefully early next week. Car has no rust
 
I sold my VTI civic for that price last year! This is an absolute STEEL! :shocked:
 
It's crazy, how little 9's are worth these days! 6 months ago you'd still get decent money for them. Good luck with the sale, someone will be getting a stonker of a deal!
 
Thanks guys, I'm just hoping it sells to an enthusiast that will look after her:nice:
 
absolute stormer of a bargain !!
I sold my black one exact same as this last year for 5k :nerv:
 
Crazy cheap!!! Best of luck with sale! This will be snapped up in no time!
 
:angry2: :eek: :nerv: :secret:

I'm gonna speak to some people.... and see if i can borrow some monies..

A black EK9 you say.. mechanically sound you say... Pre-facelift you say .... £3800 you say.... :wtf2:

OHH suits ME sir....


i will have some talks with people over some beers :meet: and let you know over the next 3 - 5 days..

i've been wanting a :ek9: for so long now. i think its time i upgraded :damn2:.. Makes sense in stead of plowing money into my EK4..
 
u been trying to selll it at that price for months n months...... gd luck with the quick sale!
 
Cheers guys, it was up for sale earlier this year for more but got fed up of people wasting my time so I've reduced it a fair bit. Worst thing is, I've still got people texting me asking if I'll take £3300 lol. Worst guys:angry:

Car was priced more initially. Also was using it at that moment in time so wasn't fussed about selling it. Worst thing was only had 1 person come view it that wanted a test drive, which he never got:drive:
 
Glwts again bud. Im still confused as to why nobody has snapped this up, especially for the price. Get it bought Topher!
