Seems to happen that way with certain motors. They're everywhere you look and suddenly you don't see them anymore. Even the old 96' laguna estates like the one I sold a few months ago suddenly seem to have dissapeared. When I think back to all the old hum-drum motors I used to have that are suddenly becoming worth something when they turn up on ebay makes me wish I'd kept half of them. I even watched a MK2 Cavalier SRi fetch £3500 on ebay a few months back, I gave one away a couple of years ago !

I hope the Mods will excuse the link going in this thread but in the context, I found this although it has an iffy gearbox. However, there is a replacement gearbox included........

I've got one of these in storage in a barn
Honda Civic Sport, the Acclaim was just a rebadged Civic saloon but used the Sport engine. The engines a nice unit, all alloy and light enough to lift unaided (I know this because I still have one kicking about in the shed that I keep having to move out of my way !). I'm waiting for the Civic to rise in value so I can sell it and retire on the proceeds (I only intend to live for a few days after I retire !)

Theres an 850 T5 for sale near me in wiltshire for £500. Olive green. 165K, Taxed and tested
I brought an 850 t5 a few months ago for 500 pounds.
Taxed and tested. In good condition.
Since then I have spent about 1200 pounds sorting brakes including stainless braided lines. Polybushing engine bay . service. Replacing brake fluid and may of recommended stage 0 parts.
Had the windows tinted. Winter wheels (already had tyres) and currently have plans for more handling mods. Exhaust and a bit more power.
So I guess the point that im getting at is if you get one and become attached its gunna cost more then just 500 pounds
I don't break gearboxes. Just engine mounts.............
I've always wanted one of each...
