Lol they are geniune Km's too i have the log book, its been in my family since purchase in 97. Its also got factory leather seats which seems pretty uncommon.

[mugen_ctr]

kms dont mean much at all from my pov, as long as its been looked after, well serviced, than any vehicle can last 360,000kms, cause thats what our camry is sitting at lol, still goin strong!

Good stuff never knew they came with leather seats...

Mmm... well from what I can find no 96-00 Aus spec Honda came with leather seats:

There was however a premium version for the Canadian market, which had the option of factory leather/heated seats. So, either your car is Canadian or they've been re-trimmed I'd say

lol i dont think my cars canadian and those seats are different to mine, mine are like standard hatch ones but black leather, ill have a chat to the old man when i see him next and find out what the go is, he was quite adamant that it was all stock, he bought it so thought he knew what he was talking about lol, might have been a dealer option to have them retrimmed before delivery or something.

[grifty]

maybe they are just leather seat covers?

[TbM]

Ive had the car apart and they arnt covers, the seats definately been upholstered in leather.

[Alvis]

^^ Hmmm... maybe your aunt paid extra to have Honda upholster them in leather. First time I've ever seen that in an EK1 hatch...

[kyzz]

thats cool, i want to do it.

anyway, mum put some massive old fence in my hatch and dirt went in my 6x9s and was crunching between the speaker cone and the pillar and it sounded blown, took the 6x9s out, cleaned them out and now my car is bass filled with no crackling again!
