Honda Integra DC5 Type R
Discussion
In my excitement on the day, i didn't take any pics, these are the dealer ones...I'll snap a load of the interior next weekend and furnish the thread with the excitement of a parcel shelf.
The irony is that the factory tint on the rear window is dark enough that you wouldn't technically need the parcel shelf unless you wanted to put a box of tissues on it!!

Why are these not seen to be as good as the DC2? Surely a few mods can turn it into something pretty hardcore?
Some Honda fans prefer the older cars with the B series engine and consider those with the K series (EP3/DC5/FN2) to be too modern and heavy and are not a fan of iVTECAnd yes have seen plenty of bonkers N/A EP3/FN2's on Youtube, the DC5 will be no different with the added bonus of all the JDM benefits

Lovely looking example OP
Don't know if they are your cup of tea or if you are aware, but Ariel are based 2 miles from that dealer in case you fancy having a look at Atoms/Nomads etc whilst you are in the middle of nowhere in deepest somerset.

No worries, if you're into that type of car etc it will be worth it, they are very open/welcoming and you can see vehicles in build etc. I make an annual pilgrimage every year to get my Atom serviced, it's the only reason I "know" Crewkerne.Apologies for the slight thread derail

Cracking car OP. I remember driving one of Iain Litchfield's imported cars back in the early 2000's around Cheltenham. Also drove his Ferrari 360 that day and I preferred the Intregra DC5 Type R as it drove so well on the roads into Cheltenham and the 360 just wanted to spit you off the road.
Like others have said, try to get that fog light relocated and get the wheels a darker colour and you'll have a truly lovely car.
