Goldseal has one listed, probably a JDM import.

If you want zero road tax then it has to be post march 2001 reg date. (check this though as I am not 100% on the month)

Honda Cars UK get trade in ones from customers that's where I got my first one.

All are rare as hen's teeth so be quick and remember we are all looking at any as well!! LOL

I quite fancy a CVT to tinker with.

Also you can try Chris Ball he used to deal in MK1 Insights.

Roger is right re below. Also imports of any year are not tax free ASFAIK.

Thanks folks,

I'm not too bothered about the year and the road tax, i'm just keen to get a good car, (a bit of a project maybe but not too much - I'm a mech engineer not an electrical/electronics engineer!).

I have been fascinated by them for a while, and looks like I may actually be able to afford one soon (assuming petrol prices don't double the selling prices!).

I'll keep an eye on it.... what is the general consensus on price range in these days of £1.35+ per litre petrol prices? they were about £4-6k for a 2001 car last summer, and I now finally have that to spend, so I hope they are not now £8-12k!

Thanks all

Andy
