Car has been mapped by Paul West (kingtuna) tpw engineering. It runs perfectly. Engine very well maintained at Coast2Coast in Buckley (Honda specialist) It has a carbon vented bonnet, carbon spoiler, additional trim to the rear creating a nice stance. It has an aftermarket front radiator grille and is on 18" Rota Grid wheels finished in white. The car is on Tien lowering springs and has 10mm spacers all around filling the arches without any rubbing. Wheels are wrapped in Goodyear F1 asymmetric 6 tyres all in good condition. The car will come with a private registration specific to the car (fk07 CVK) The sport plus came with a panoramic roof and 11 speaker audio. I've added a powered under seat sub to the to enhance the sound professionally installed at Warrington car audio & towbars ltd. The car is fitted with a V1.2 K-Tuner and will come with the car. So it ports dials to the head unit giving live data and can also be set up to record data on a mobile phone useful for recording track days or however you choose to use it. The car has X2 maps which are instant. Unlike the civic sport, the sport plus has an adjustable suspension so eco mode gives a softer ride and because it's on springs and not coilovers it maintains this function. Eco has been mapped to 200bhp and "sport mode" runs at 250bhp. It has a Wagner performance intercooler & pipe kit, a Fujitsabo front pipe upgrade, type R (fk8) exhaust straight piped from cat which is untouched. An MST induction kit, aftermarket engine cover 'because why not' ...Also if required the original wheels, bonnet air box and intercooler...

Frequently Asked Questions

What does "JDM" mean on Madlows?

JDM stands for Japanese Domestic Market and is widely used in the UK car scene to describe Japanese-made vehicles — particularly those popular in the modified car community, such as Nissan, Toyota, Honda, Subaru and Mitsubishi models. On Madlows, you'll find both standard UK-spec and imported Japanese cars listed by private sellers and dealers.

Are these cars UK-based?

Yes — all listings on Madlows are from UK-based sellers. Cars may be UK-spec models or legally imported vehicles registered for road use in the UK. Each listing will include full details from the seller, so you can ask any questions before committing.

How do modifications affect insurance and MOT?

Any modifications to a vehicle must be declared to your insurer — failing to do so can invalidate your policy. For MOT purposes, modifications are generally acceptable as long as the car meets the required safety and emissions standards. We always recommend checking with a specialist insurer and a qualified MOT tester if you're unsure.

Can I list an imported Japanese car?

Absolutely. As long as the vehicle is registered and road-legal in the UK, you can list it on Madlows. Make sure your listing clearly states that it's an import and includes all relevant details such as mileage (converted to miles), registration history, and any modifications.

How do featured listings work?

Featured listings appear at the top of search results and category pages, giving your car more visibility to serious buyers. When you create a listing on Madlows, you'll have the option to upgrade to a Featured listing during checkout. Featured status lasts for 30 days.
