What we value, particularly our vehicles, depends very much upon time and place. The sixth generation Honda Civic, built from ’95 to 2000 (and its Rover 200/400 counterpart), is worth scrap money here in TLCB’s home nation. That is despite the fact they go on for ever, and shouldn’t really need scrapping yet at all.

In the Unites States however, the ‘EM’ Civic is both revered (and hated) as a staple of the tuner scene, and is rather sought-after. No doubt reverence for the mid-’90s Civic will rise in the UK too, as the numbers on the road dwindle to almost nothing, but for now many end their days doing this. There are thousands left on the roads in America though, with many tastefully modified (and many more rather less so) thanks to an abundance of tuning parts.

This neat Speed Champions recreation of the sixth-generation Honda Civic Si Coupe comes from Ilya M of Flickr, who has taken the former route to modification to rather smart effect. There’s an opening hood (with a detailed engine underneath), room for two mini-figures, and free building instructions available (100 TLCB Points to Ilya). Take a look via the link above to see more.
