Just bought a car for shedding but it's so good I'm not going to neglect it, should last me ages.

Civic 1.5is, AC, econo mode, leccy mirrors / windows, fsh, obscene money spent on upkeep, no rust, mot'd, 165k and runs like a Swiss watch. A true one old lady from new machine.

£570



Not sure if there's a shed thread?

That's what I called my Honda smile

Yours looks tidy enough for the money you paid.

The finest vintage of reliable vehicle in my honest opinion.

Looked at Micras, Ka and Fiesta of similar pricing and rusty as hell or seriously abused., all this one needs is a new rubber button for the remote fob which I've ordered off eBay.

You won't go wrong with a Honda civic of this age. I have an EK hatch as a 'shed' that I have had for 3 years to keep the mileage and damage off my proper cars. All its had in 3 years and 30k miles, other than an annual service, is 1 CV joint.
Great reliability and lovely to drive too
Poor thing is no stranger to being thrashed down a nice B road and totally rammed full of rubbish for the Tip run.

Excellent. After years of buying new cars I'm convinced my next one will be as cheap as possible.
