1998 Honda Integra Type R DC2 UK Car 82k Miles SOLD

For sale is my Low Mileage UK DC2 Integra Type-R. It's the UK cars that are predicted to appreciate in value the most over the next few years and this one has to be one of the best out there.
Still today, these cars are considered one of the best front wheel drivers cars but you probably already knew that.

Firstly, a little history about the vehicle.
I purchase the car from a fellow enthusiast and forum member on itr-dc2 forums
It had low mileage and had clearly been looked after by the previous owners.
I've owned both a Jdm and UKDM DC2 back in both early and late 2000 and it's the car I keep getting the urge to go back to.

This one comes with extensive History and is easily the best of all three I've owned.
The Original sales receipt shows it was bought by a woman in Leicester who had the car up to 67000 miles and nearly 15 years ownership.
During this period it had always been given the full Honda Service treatment and all the stamps and numerous receipts back this up.

For the next 10k miles it had two other owners over a 5 year period so was probably a second car for both averaging only 2k miles a year.
Again, there are loads of receipts for numerous parts, services and the all important regular filter, oil changes, cam belt changes, plugs etc etc

I purchased this DC2 on 77k miles.
The only real issue with the car when I bought it was an Aircon issue and ABS sensor fault. Both were sorted by myself relatively easily.
It had coilovers fitted when I bought it but I had the oem suspension refit as I preferred this.
An Energy Suspension Hyperflex Full Polybush Kit had already been fit at end of 2014.
Also, Honda rear trailing arm bushes, track rod ends and front drop links were replaced at the same time.

The 96 spec JDM manifold is a significant improvement over the UKDM on the DC2 and the previous owner had TGM fit this.
Other than a Fujitsubo Exhaust the car is Oem spec throughout and should be running identical power to the JDM car due to the 96 spec manifold, smaller Jdm cat and Fujitsubo Exhaust.

As with many of these cars of this age the previous owner did have minor repair work on one of the arches. At the same time work was done to refresh the paintwork with a full respray. The aerial has also been removed and smoothed over.
The work was done by Honda Specialists TGM Sport and it's clearly to a very high standard.
The Underside was also cleaned and resealed at the same time.
I have loads of pictures of the work done.
After all of the above work the car now looks and drives as close to new as you'd expect.


I've kept detailed notes on what I've done in my time with the car no matter how small, and I think it's the attention to these small details that sets this car apart.

A lot of the work I have had done is by a well respected lad and mechanic on ITRDC2 forums as he knows these cars inside out.
Interior is very clean for its age and the Recaros are both like new with virtually no bolster wear to either. The previous owner had somehow sourced a mint drivers seat to pair with already mint passenger seat.
This DC2 comes with Double Din stereo and I fit a reversing camera just to give it a little modern tech.
Interior under carpets and plastics are all clean. No water ingress anywhere as I have had on previous dc2's due to bad light gaskets or leaking aerial seal.
The car now has as good as new brakes all round, Abs fully functional, Aircon working..... basically everything just works as it should.

Exterior is still near perfect with only a few minor stone chips.
Wheels were refurbished by previous owner and are still in excellent condition.
This car has the very rare optional Factory fitted Fog lights fitted with colour coded rubber grommets.

Engine is strong and gearbox is sound. No oil leaks, burns no oil and no smoke in VTEC.
Just like my previous DC2's back in the this car has been 100% reliable and a real joy to drive.
It really is in top condition and needs nothing doing to it other than maintaining.
Only ever run on Shell V-power 99 fuel

If you're in the market for a clean Low Mileage and well looked after DC2 you'll struggle to find one better than this I'm sure.
I'd bet most fresh imports will probably need money throwing at them in the form of Brakes, engine mounts, suspension components, cam belt etc etc
so surely better to consider a uk car that has had so much done.

My DC2 Comes with stacks of history and receipts plus Spare key and Fob.
Straight through last mot with no advisories. Next Mot due June 2020

Any questions please don't be shy.

It is amazing to think that the Honda S2000 will be 25 years old next year. The design is still so crisp and fresh and the drive is hard to find fault with. There is 242 BHP on tap from the naturally aspirated 2.0 16v VTEC unit which howls all the way up to the 9,000 rpm red line. An exciting performance car in every respect. This ...
