Returning to the supplying dealer for servicing until 1994 whereupon a relocation to Grantham entrusted a local garage for regular maintenance. The service book has 14 entries backed by physical invoices. Upon the owners retirement the vehicle was inherited by his son. Mr J Green. who used the vehicle sparingly until 2002 when a total of 42. 40 miles had been covered. Every MOT and tax disc has been neatly filed until this point when careful storage followed. Mr J Green recently made the difficult decision to part with the car knowing it was his fathers pride and joy but they both wish the vehicle to go to a good home. Every document has been retained. from handbooks to sales brochures when purchased new. The service book still has the Honda Owners Card neatly housed in the pouch to the inside front cover and all keys with dealer key fobs are present. A rare unmolested and fun modern classic.
