Honda Civic EF Hatchback (Japanese Import)
A genuine Japanese-market Honda Civic EF Hatchback, imported directly from Japan and remaining dry stored since 1998. Remarkably, this Civic has never been registered for road use in Ireland, the UK, or anywhere else in Europe since its arrival, making it an increasingly rare survivor.
This Civic has retained its original character throughout its life and features a selection of desirable genuine Honda accessories. Rather than being restored or heavily modified, it remains an honest, highly original example that showcases exactly what these iconic late-1980s Civics were like when new.
