UK Integra Type R DC2 model - any made?

[Matt_E]

Hi all,

Do you know if a model of the UK Integra Type R DC2 was ever made? I can't seem to find one anywhere.

There appears to be plenty of Japanese models, but the frog-eyed UK spec seems to be a challenge to find!

Links/photos would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Matt

I found one years ago in a range called Modifiers. I did have a quick look for the web site but it seems to have gone. They were made by X Concepts and probably labelled as Acura Integras.

They were only £5.99 rrp when they were new. I'd like one but the P&P makes it expensive Item number: 230188237761

None of those are the UK Integra, the main visual difference is that the UK Integra has twin headlights.

No they were released in the UK (as mentioned previously) identified by their frog-eye headlights. (See my garage picture for my example).

Thanks for taking the time to find those Acura examples, perhaps an American Integra is as close as we can get.

The round headlamps are not UK-only. They were also on the pre-facelift Japanese model. The facelift did not make it to the UK version for some reason.

Thanks for clarifying, Alex. Nice 'on-track' picture in your profile.

Hello Alex, we met at the 'ring a couple of weeks ago I think.

I was the passenger in the black Integra and nattering with your mate Ed

I'll bring this thread back to life.....

In my loft, I have a DC2 UK spec Integra kit, that I bought when I got my 'Teg back in'00. It's made by Revell and is approx 6" long when built.

I bought it from a US company called Pacific Rim and paid about £15.00

I never got round to building it due to laziness.

Yours for a tenner if you want it.

Simon.
