UK Tax Exempt Manual Insight

It was £4000 a week ago.

Malcolm. How do you know there are only UK Manual cars? Did that info come from Honda? Source?

The fog lamp is enough to suggest its an import to me?

Also registration is 01 August 2007 and where you would see Honda on a UK car this says HYBRID. No rear fog button or headlamp adjusters.

Looks like it has a few mods aswell, including what looks like an orange push button near the ignition barrel? push button start, FAS or full regen. Who knows.

It wasn't this particular car I was talking about, but Malcoms statement that all UK supplied cars are manuals?

The CVT has a sport mode so that could well be that button? I'm sure someone will help us with that.

Dear Peter,

I have no access to official Honda numbers but the CVT was never listed in Honda Uk sales brochures, sad individual that I am, I have (I think) the full set.

Also the figure bandied around was 200 cars, 2000 and 2001 construction, then a few later on including the free car to the highest mileage applicant, the free car was intended to be another model, possibly a Civic, but the winner insisted on an Insight.

One of the earliest 2000 year cars Oxygen Blue Insight Vin ending 0013 languished at Chiswick Honda, unregistered until 2004, they wanted £15500, bought by one of my near neighbours at London Bridge, Chris Ball eventually purchased the car.

Refering to another vehicle, I wonder where GX02 JBM is today

A 2001 model year from the VIN, Bright Red, a dealer registration, on sale for £10000 at a Honda dealer in deepest Sussex late 2003 with 3500 miles, in use by some of the employees.

I could have been the owner but wanted Oxygen Blue.
