EXTERIOR
This super low mileage first gen CRX presents beautifully in glossy Polar White. The paintwork is near immaculate throughout and has recently been treated by the current owner to a full ceramic coating. Looking closer, the contrasting lower panels and bumpers are amazingly well preserved with no unsightly sun damage or fading to report. Similarly, all trims and seals retain an excellent factory finish having never been allowed to dry out or perish – even the rear spoiler still presents like new. The badges are also in super condition, as are the lights, which are free from any cracks or signs of moisture ingress. All in all, a surely unrepeatable example having clearly been cherished since new.
INTERIOR
With its unworn velour bucket seats, original tape deck and overall pristine appearance, the interior space is a real treat for the enthusiast. The condition is truly age-defying throughout, with commonly worn items such as the steering wheel and gearknob showing almost no signs of any wear. The herringbone upholstery has never faded or discoloured, with the amazing condition of the bolsters hinting at only the lightest of use. Everything works exactly as it should, including the electric sunroof, and in the footwells the carpets are well protected by a set of tailored overmats. The generous boot area is also remarkably clean, still housing the spare wheel, jack and tool roll beneath the floor.
ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION
The CRX’s 1. 5-litre engine is a revvy little number. With three valves per cylinder and Honda’s PGM-FI (Programmed Fuel Injection) it punches out a respectable 99hp, enough to shift the car from 0-60mph in under 9 seconds. The engine bay of this particular example is extremely clean and tidy, with no signs of any damage or previous poor repair to speak of – even some of the protective factory wax can still be seen. The last service was carried out at 30, 900 miles and included a timing belt change.
WHEELS, TYRES AND BRAKES
The CRX sits on its original 13-inch alloys, all in perfect unmarked condition. The wheels are shod in a matching set of Uniroyal tyres, all with between 5-6mm of tread remaining. The brakes have also been checked and remain in fine operational condition, bringing the car to a halt quickly and in a straight line.
HISTORY FILE
This exemplary CRX was supplied new in November 1985 by Lester Honda of Chadwell Heath whose original rear window sticker and number plate can still be found. The car has now driven just 34k miles in the hands of five owners. The History File is complete with the original Honda document wallet, owner’s manual, service booklet, spare key, original sales brochure, and a raft of previous MOT certificates verifying the car’s super low mileage. The last service was carried less than 4k miles ago and included a timing belt change. A fresh service will be carried out prior to sale for the new keeper’s peace of mind.
