yeah sorry fella bin on a lude owners forum lol, 4th gen equals mk4 facelift 
it's a 1995 and hopefully fitting uprated torox 40grove discs, mintex pads, castrol extreme 4dot and uprated lines for around £300 . it's gonna have a mini service an oil change when it gets to norwich. although it was done very recently i still want it to have a proper health check. but evrything on it looks mint, the guy selling it hasn't been around to drive so his dad has been using it to go to the shops back and forth to keep it runnin, he didn't even no it had a vtec and changed gear at 5000rpm bless

when i was working at the garage had a guy who had the estate one with same thing
His wife was a **** teasing bitch and complained about a noise, took him out in it and down dc. he asked why it goes up to 9k on revs.
said it has btec and has a 3rd lobe on the camshaft bla bla.
Then told him if i put the foot down it goes fast basically. he said go for it show me.
So i did. loved the car afterwards. i serviced it every 5 and 10 k miles.

Was it Deer?
Sorry I meant dear?
I can understand the V-TEC sound, think you will just miss the torque a bit though.
Drive this one carefully and stay away from long straight roads in the country-side

honda's are good motors
i had a 87 plate accord 2.0i ex top of the range for my first car, that went but no vtec in that as it was too old
was expensive when stuff went wrong though

Cheers guys
yup the paintwork came up nice after a good polish, not bad considering it's twelve years old. Good points are the bloody adictive sound, the speed even without hitting VTEC, the sound and it handles like a beeza never could thanks to the trick limited slip diferential and 4WS. as for the 2.2's being pretty quick well the honda figures of 6.7 seconds 0-60 is for the UKspec 180 odd BHP with 2 passengers, full tank and 15kgs of luggage beleive it or not 
. Mines a bit upon power but does have the added weight of the LSD so evens out, i know peeps how have got low 6s easily in there standard ludes.
bad points are.. well the after market stereo the previous owner fitted if shockingly bad and all speaker were blown already replaced 2 with cheapys but due to me being skint at the mo the rest will have to wait, also there are a few rattles but not as many as my old car. plus me having to learn Km/ph lol

meantime timing belt needs changing.
