?APPEAL??
The CRX (or Del Sol as it is widely known) with its attractive design is definitely a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Coming in a variety of models, this one is the most powerful with its rather special 1. 6L DOHC VTEC engine. At 5000rpm, you’ll feel a surge of power as the engine comes alive and the valves open fully to provide a very different driving experience, propelling it from 0-60 in under 7 seconds, and a top speed of approximately 135mph. ??Originally purchased from Livery Dole Honda in Exeter, on 31st January 1994, the first owner, a Doctor, kept the car for almost 22 years. It was then sold to a friend, who was a well known car owners club Chairman, who then kept the car for the next 7 1/ 2 years only selling due to illness. I then acquired the vehicle as I had one when I was younger and wanted a trip down memory lane as I knew how special that Vtec engine was. Being such a rare car I am very reluctant to let go of it, however a change of circumstances forces my hand.?? I am in no doubt that this is one of the lowest mileage UK cars left in original condition.??

SUMMARY
??A loved, very low mileage, low owner, Honda CRX VTI presented in great original condition. These little VTI’s have increased in value significantly in recent years because so many will have had the engine stripped out and used in other projects. One like this that has been lovingly cared for and in all-original condition should appeal to a classic collector as they are such a rare find these days. Or you might fancy a thrilling driving experience, either way, this one provides.
