Agreed. Whats it worth Mark, well if its as clean as you say with the low mileage and history I'd say anything between £1500 to £2500. All depends who buys it mate

You do realise that's the nicest car in the street right?! Which wheels is it running?

If this is for sale, it needs to be moved and locked - is it for sale Paul?

[mark2mark]

the car is running on the stealths at the minute as the original wheels need 4 new tyres due to being parked up in storage for a long time the sidewalls had cracked. and thanks i think its the nicest car in the street too it gets loads of attention and i wouldnt doubt unwanted attention when im not around so if im not in the car she has a disclock steering clamp fitted this is done even in the filling station as we in belfast seem to have a high number of thieving skiprats lol the car is for sale £2500ono and comes with original wheels and exhaust the wheels are mint no scuffs or dents . i will try and get some pics of the engine and underside boot sills rear arches to let you see how good a car she is cheers (getting very rare now)

Can vouch for this one. I brought it home from England. Absolutely mint throughout, looks as good as when I sold it. Not many out there cleaner!

[cavvypogo]

Lovin that and it looks absolute mint to me

i thought i had found rust on the strutt tops/inner wings one day but on closer inspection it turned out to be crusted over grease i was relieved and happy some 1 had spent the time and taken a lot of care to preserve this car it gets loads of compliments and i love driving it when the sun shines but i have got the bug for another fireblade so the cavalier and wee vespa have to find new homes to make way for 1 although my wife isnt happy about  the big bike thing again and my daughter loves the cavalier i dont know what to do . maybe finance a blade but with a vespa a yamaha dragstar a peugeot speedfight 2 mountain bikes 2 toyota corolla,s a transit van and a mini cooper we dont have room and im under orders to get rid of some machinery as i can only drive 1 at a time lol i love them all tho women just dont understand

Get a cbr600rr and keep the cav 8)

[mark2mark]

just sold an 04 cbr 600 rr had to change gears too often not enough low down grunt need the big 1000 again

[Greg]

I've got a 2006 rr and 98 VFR800 for the commute.  I really fancy an SP1 or 2 VTR1000 atm.

[mark2mark]

love the honda,s with the under seat exhaust and vents infront of the pillion they just look 100mph parked. my friend has a vfr and wouldnt ride any other bike he loves them i think he is on his 7th he has rode all types but just loves the vfr for an allrounder i love the sound of the sp1 but they are too rich to buy you like your hondas i think the best bike by far

[Greg]

Hondas (bikes) and vauxhalls (cars), seemples :angel:

I have to say the old VFR is brilliant, it has good range on the motorway and is tidy in the bends.  Its only downfair for me is the weight at slow speed or pushing it about, that said its a minor problem.  One day i'll get a VTR, I want the white and black SP-2, as you say a tad expensive still.

I am impressed with size of the fireblade, it really looks small these days (compared to the 90's and early 2000's ones)
