2006 HONDA CIVIC

2006 Honda Civic EP3 Type R Premiere Edition, Sprint, Hillclimb, track car **2024 Championship winner**

A very capable car with multiple sprint class podiums and outright championship in 2024

I have owned the car for nearly 6 years, it has been garaged for the entire time when not in use and has only covered circa 4000 miles in that period, to and from sprint events.

I am a middle aged guy and this is my sprint car that has minimal use competing in 5 - 8 sprint events per annum. A sprint is typically 5 runs per event lasting approximately 2 minutes each.

It is ‘Club Sport Spec’, the rear seats are still present as is the head lining, all interior trim and carpets for the sprint regulations. Despite it’s high modification and track orientated set-up it is remarkably comfortable still on the road with ice cold A/C, apple car play, blue tooth etc. It is perfect to get you to, around, and home from the track.

It has benefitted from constant care and fettling at the family garage business. It has been very well looked after with a health check following each and every outing by our highly experienced technician who has prepared and maintained the car during my ownership.

It presents extremely well as seen in the images. I frequently receive compliments on it’s clean appearance. It has minor marks and blemishes which of course are to be expected. It is fantastic for a 20 year vehicle that has been used for track days and competition. I looked at multiple cars before settling on this one, you will not be disappointed.

Following it’s success in the 2024 championship I have achieved the goal I set out to. I am moving to a different vehicle in a different class and a new challenge but this car will be sorely missed, one of the best I have owned.

I have two keys, working remote, original book pack with manuals, a large folder of history and receipts.

Also some spares, rear bumper, door card, fitted car cover (small rip) with bag etc. I am happy to throw in and also another set of Team dynamics wheels and standard spare in black, AD08R’s with a lot of life, these are available by separate negotiation
