EOI: Honda City T2 for sale - VIC
Posted: Thu Jun 18, 2015 12:33 am
Hi there everyone, just putting the feelers out there to see what (if any) interest there may be for my 84-85' Honda City T2. I've been debating the idea of parting ways with this little gem but its incredibly difficult to gauge what a fair price would be so at this stage its just an expression of interest and I'm open to offers.
It's in good condition for its age, starts runs and drives incredibly well (engine feels very strong) no mechanical issues with engine or driveline and the gearbox shifts smoothly in all gears. No smoke on start up or under boost.
There are some minor surface rust spots that need a little TLC - if anything just needs time and effort to correct. No underbody rust (have had up on hoist to inspect properly) The back bumper would need a respray as the paint has flaked off across the majority of the top.
No modifications, mostly original minus the aftermarket Sony radio head unit and after market wheels. It does have its original factory floor mats which I'm told are somewhat sort after.
The driver's side seat cloth would need to be repaired as the side closest to the door has worn away, a seat cover would make it pass RWC but it would be a shame to let the seat deteriorate any further.
Unfortunately I couldn't tell you how many KM's the little champ has traveled as the previous owner to me claimed the odometer stopped and/or flipped over but theres no way its done a million km's with an engine this healthy (then again Honda engineering back in the day could prove this wrong but still doubtful)
I contacted the Department of Infrastructure and Transport to seek the car's original import approval and have that documentation to provide with the car as well (as a bit of history) and I have tried to seek the original Japanese owners history however the ministry of transportation in Japan do not keep electronic records of documents prior to 1990. I do however have a funky Honda City T2 japanese sales brochure to go with car.
All in all, hopefully anyone reading with any genuine interest can appreciate this is a genuine and honest T2 with a reluctant to sell owner however I sadly just do not have the time and resources to pour into the car to truly bring out its charming character and believe somebody else could give the car a better life.
