Thanks Denis. I believe that there were only 80 sold in the UK and that number has been boosted by around 150 by jap imports. I was told that this car was the Honda works car but I'm not sure what that means. I'll see if I can dig through any info I have and find out any more of the history.

I've now done 600+ miles and the car is currently in for its MOT (UK road worthiness check). I'll refill it tonight and post up the numbers for the first tank. It shouldn't be hard to beat those figures because the first 300+ miles I was driving the car home and I was in a hurry so I was popping along at 60-80 mph depending on traffic.

I do plan to do some eco mods on the car yes. I've been playing with FAS and think that an FAS switch would be helpful. I also like the idea of an IMA disable switch to prevent me charging the car when I'm going uphill. I think the warm air feed will be next, however I'd prefer to get a spare intake before modding one permanently.
