Shouldn't take too much! If it was an EP3 I think the Logbook would be going in my name! Still a great car to drive, so different to the modern hot hatches but I like that 👌

Great video I own a fn2 had it three years mint car 🚗

I've always wanted an EP3 but at least this satisfied the VTEC craving ha! Good but not great like the EP3 in my eyes!

Looks good for its age

Labour trade price for timing chain replacement shouldn't be more then £150.

I don't think my mechanic has done one so it's a bit unknown. He's £50 an hour but does look after me on some of the bigger jobs. Still not got round to it yet!

@FlippinMotorsUK it's fairly easy, plenty of guides online and on KZread. He will need to get honda bond to seal the timing chain case back on, cheaper stuff leaks or doesn't stick too well.

First Honda I've ever bought! Most Japanese cars have rust issues, I think Mazdas are worst from personal experience by far! Anthony from Budget Bangers did a video on a 2009 Mazda 2 and half the boot floor was missing!

I did for a little while but I always seem to do good money off them, very quick sales uo here in the North East and not had any major issues especially the diesels so I struggle to turn them down if they're a good price

@DaleSteel I've done quite a few DS3 and C4 but only the 1.6 hdi ones. I like a Fiat 500/Punto too and never done bad off an Insignia 2.0 diesel either. Done a few Minis too.
