An Awsome Honda


Recommended Posts

Its actually pretty cheap!!!! looks expensive but very cheap a 1999 model for ?7000 or a 1995 model for ?3000 beats any luxury marque at value for money - try lookin it at autotrader uk.

ERM ERM a 94 840Ci is ?8000 and for that you get a 4.4l V8, and windscreen wipers who adjust pressure according to your speed. And for ?3500 you can get a decent E39 7-series which again kicks your car's *** in terms of luxury and mere po;)r ;)

But in both cases you'd need to do some pretty serious repair work - equivalent to your tuning I guess.

Although I have to say, this is probably the first car I see from the UK which is tuned tastefu:Dy :D

And don't pay attention to my 8-series rambling your car is very n:De :D

An E39 7-Series? I'd be interested in that. :D

:p

Yeah ok most of these aren't E39s but I don't have time to look for them one by one. However I'm sure I saw a couple :D

(distances don't refer to how much the car has run, just to how far the dealer is from my place sorry if I put your hopes :D :D)

First 3 replies (country-wide, ?3000-4000 7-series, less than 10 years old) Those are E39s right? According to the year anyway.

I think the reason they're so cheap is because they're old-fashioned by today's jap-design standards, as well as expensive to run and to repair with parts being rare and not cheap... Making it a great car if you can afford it, but if you can afford it chances are you'll go for something better... like an 8-ser;)s ;)

Not the ones from a couple of years ago to now (next gen will be better tho from what I heard even though they are going with jap styling), they tend to fall to pieces as you press the starter button. However I have to say the good old-fashioned "tanks" S-class was deffo the best luxury saloon out there short of a rolls. Beemers never quite managed to beat them.

Check out my Honda, Its a Legend!!  This car is amazing and i have tricked it out a bit. It has serious street cred in the UK, especially when other folks drive around in box shaped small cars :D. This bad boy packs in serious power too a 3.5L V6 engine and pretty low and wide for awsome control!, not to mention its a luxury sedan :cool: and has every function u can dream of in a car and this was 15 years ago lol. Cars today dont have some of the stuff this one boasts (exepct mayb for lexus). After driving this car, Mercs and even bmw are a bit well... not so refined and lacks power and luxury. This is a True SpOrTs Saloon and a Legend.  ;)

I realise this is old, But the Mercedes S Class outclasses any Lexus or BMW.

Alright... I ve done a few changes after a lot of complaints :blink: now i guess it looks pretty normalish... Replaced the Rims, Spoilers and got rid of the window covers, Side skirts :happy:,  reduced the front windows tint to 0% and  finally i also added some new Xenon Headlamp bulbs and fog lights :laugh:

:alien:

where do you live? the 'fern' to the left of the car looks nice. ive never seen anything like that before.

I was being sarcastic in my last comment because the E39 is the 5-Series, not the 7-Series.

The E39 7-Series quite simply doesn't exist. :p

Point taken :p I've never been very good with chassis numbers. What are the pre-Bangle ones then? E31?

E38 is the 7 series you are thinking of.

As regards the Honda, it certainly would not be my choice, and as regards it being a better driving car than a BMW, I would seriously disagree.

I have had an E32 Alpina B11 (one of 7 made EVER), an E34 540i Manual (a rare car in the UK), and an E38 740i Manual (a VERY rare car - it was possibly the only one in the UK).

All of them had at least 50bhp more than your Honda, were RWD, so, almost certainly handled better as well as outperformed it in a straight line, and all had a reasonably high factory spec.

The 740i for example, had electric, heated front and rear buffalo hide seats, a fridge between the rear seats, soft close doors, auto close boot, double glazing, electric windows, electric, auto dimming, folding mirrors, Sat Nav, DVD, DSP stereo, xenon headlights and so on.

    • Visual Studio finally gets long-awaited feature that developers will love by Usama Jawad Visual Studio Code is Microsoft's popular, lightweight, open-source code editor, it is actually Visual Studio that is the company's flagship integrated development environment (IDE). Although the IDE already offers a boatload of useful features for developers, Microsoft has finally introduced a long-requested capability that will be loved by many. While developers have already been able to create Git pull requests (PRs) directly within Visual Studio for the past couple of years, it had not been possible to review a PR without switching to the browser, until now. Microsoft revealed in December 2025 that it is working on UX that enables developers to do just that, and fast-forward to June 2026, and Visual Studio finally has native capabilities to open and inspect a PR, discuss feedback, and wrap up the review, all without switching to the browser. This integration works for both GitHub and Azure DevOps (including on-prem). Developers have access to multiple surfaces to open a PR, including Git Repository, Git Changes, and the Git menu in Visual Studio. Once you open a PR, all the important details will be immediately visible to you, from where you can navigate to various levels of granularity and branch states, depending on the reviews that you are engaged in. As you would expect, you also get a diff view that enables you to see code changes inline or side-by-side in a separate panel. You can also review commit-by-commit. Additionally, this UX fosters collaboration as you can leave comments, reply to threads, and resolve conversations easily. Naturally, you can also leverage Copilot to apply a code suggestion to fix a potential issue. When you are done, you have the ability to approve, complete, and merge the PR. This is a pretty major feature as it has been requested heavily for the past few years. You can try it out in Visual Studio 2026 version 18.7, made available here recently. Microsoft plans to enhance this experience further in future releases with comment filtering, a timeline of PR activity, and more.

    • Around 68% of developers are now using AI to generate code during development, and some experts are saying that a single developer using AI tools can now do the work of an entire team of 4 to 5 engineers.  According to Figma's State of the Designer 2026 report, 72% of designers now use generative AI in their workflows and 91% say it improves the quality of their work, not just their speed.  But does this mean web developers and designers are becoming less relevant, or are they simply evolving into a different kind of role? Would love to hear from developers and designers here has AI made your job easier, or do you feel threatened by how fast these tools are improving
