This Shuttle will be in December's issue of Banzai!

EE4 Honda Civic Shuttle 1.6i 4WD (5dr)


Excellent example of the rarest UK 4G Honda Civic in my opinion, and maybe the most clean too! It's never had a thrashing in it's life, and I've been driving this trouble free since July - it starts first time everytime on the dot! Everything works as it should - it's just had a full service (brakes, filters, plugs, fluids etc) and has a fully charged battery. All rust has been taken care of professionally, and the bodywork is in excellent condition.
Interior is also in excellent condition, just one or two snags to two door cards. There are no leaks at all to inside the car.
Before I bought the car it has a brand new clutch kit fitted and windscreen (early 2009), and has extensive history, looks like every receipt. I have also given the car a full valet, including refreshing the bump strips, touching up some chips/scratches, and gave it a good buffing with rubbing compound, it has really brought the paint out well.
It has also only done 2000 miles in the last 18months.
