    Well done mate, if there's something I learned is that hoarding is no fun but it's also important to pick a buyer who will cherish it the way you. 👊 all things come to pass.

    Happy to see my old Euro R has been saved. Its got some genuine volk rays evolution 4 mesh wheels 18x8 18x9 with brandnew tyres when i sold it like 4 years ago. Its a mint car back then until i sold it to a guy in Wellington. And its gone after that. Good to see it now.

    I feel you for the AC compressor. The one on my MK5 GTI went in December ( just as I go on break and it gets to 25+c lol ) only got it replaced and regased about 2 weeks ago. Cost me $800 which in grand scheme is not too bad but stung ( got a OEM AC from FCP )
    Also the Pearl Harbour joke was pretty good NGL

    Thank you for posting all of these Accord Euro videos. After watching most (if not all) of them, I've decided to get myself a nice base spec 2003 Accord Euro with 100k on the clock in Arctic Blue Metallic. Can't wait to experience the K20 and the five speed box those base models came with. Cheers!

    Hi mate. Loving your videos. They're actually quite inspirational and have motivated me to try and follow suit with an Accord rebuild.
    Just one question and maybe a dumb one but is 190 - 200k's a no no? I don't have a big budget so obviously want to buy the car relatively cheap and put most of my money into the rebuild. Cheers.

      This one had done 220,000km and I bought it back to life. Good thing with Hondas is even at those k’s the engine will still be fine. It’ll just be the bushes, accessories, gearbox, driveshafts etc. that are a bit tired
