Is this dc2r known to man?!?

[vtec_yoo]

Seems fair enough. You shouldn't have to pay more than 15k. In my experience it's hard to get insurance companies to insure them for more than 14-15k anyway. Be patient man and a good one will come along.

I've been waiting soooo long... This yellow one is pretty mint, it's just it's for sale length is off putting as its been up for ages!!

Plus he has log books till 100,000 Kms then from there claims his fathers don't the servicing and has only driven 22,000 Kms over 5 years. Seems strange!

Just posted my DC2R on carsales if you are interested. Not modified like this one but mechanically A1. Cheers

If km's aren't an issue for you, you may want to check out the three dc2's that are currently on sale in this forum. They are reasonably priced and looks decent.

Im assuming yours is the red dc2r with about 98,000 on the clock?

looking for something with under 130,000 kms pretty keen on the yellow one posted above

Does anyone here know how you can tell if the kms have been rewound?

best way is to take it a good mechanic.

I've also inspected this one, looks good although the log books stop at 100,000 kms and the owner claims only 22k have been put on the car in 5 years...

Not impossible. I put less than 800 on my ITR in the last 12 months.

Edit: I also service ever 3000kms or 3 months regardless. But I don't log book it, I just run a spreadsheet on each service.

18K seems to be the max you can insure a DC2R for - I have mine up for renewal and am going to push to have it lifted above that.

Thanks for that mate,

I guess it can be done I just find it odd in his first 5 years of ownership he bought close to 80xxx Kms
And in the last 5 years only 20xxx Kms...

Who do you have your insurance with?

I got a quote with AAMI and they valued the car at max 12,900,

I do need to insure it with a company that covers unlisted drivers though as otherwise it is far too expensive.

[Setanta]

No worries.

In my first year I put 12K kms on it, one trip home to Sydney from Qld and then an interstate run to Melbourne and back added up.

My daily is my E30 as I don't like leaving the 'teg at work (school) or carparks. Hence only 800 in 2012. Plus the E30 is such a fun little beast to drive too

I'm insured through Shannons for 18K but I also have our other 2 cars insured with them as well. Sole driver, plus I'm in my 40s which helps the insurance. Shannons are fantastic if you are an enthusiast - not quite as good as they once were but pretty damn good all the same.

ok ppl, i sold this car in feb 2012 to michael with 93k km on the clock

car was the cleanest dc2r in sydney before he took ownership. he purchased the car stock standard other than spoon sussy. previous owner (my good mate) owned it for 8 years and put about 15k in that period, and was purchased from melbourne in 2004.

i carried out the major service on the car and other bits and pieces.

not sure what the current condition of the car is, but i can definately tell you early this year is was in showroom condition. i would not hesitate to buy it if i was in the market. good luck ppl

I always chuckle when I read this. There seems to be a lot of them (including mine)

yeah but then michael sold it to another muppet, and its still epic, yet ruined... i dno.. id never buy a car from that guy, even though it is epic,

then again i cnt really justify spending 18k on a car when you can get k swapped civics for that much... i guess it is getting to be a rareish car, still..
