Went to Munich last weekend to pick up this 1996 Works Honda Accord Supertourer. Will be running in next years Supertouring car championship. Car has great history and barely used since 1998. Will be giving the car a checkover and setup before hopefully getting it out on track before the end of the year!

Congrats on the purchase dude, also if you can convince the series to fund a trip to Mondello park next year we'd be eternally grateful, it'd be nice to see Mondello attracting racers from abroad again, Motorsport has really gone downhill hill over here since the recession, back in the day Mondello attracted btcc, euro boss series, gt series and much more.....

I don't work for Mondello btw, just an avid fan of motorsports in general

Would be great to come over to Mondello again I raced there in 2005 in Formula BMW which was supporting the BTCC, great circuit and hospitality!

Very cool

What engine is that in there? Is it based on a roadcar engine or not?

It is based on the Japanese F20B engine with the cylinder head turned 180degrees.
