Hello everyone - OK I admit it , fell on love with the BEAT - saw one, bought it and now realise the questions I should have asked - Oh well !!! - join the club I guess !!

So - now I know I need to check if the distrubuter has been changed / what serial number. Am I picking up that Honda will replace it as a product recall ????

So - now I know I should have checked if the CAM belt has been changed.....doh.... I'd have done that if buying any other car ... what is it about this BEAT thing !!!!!

There's a few little niggles which I'll get sorted.

Air con not working.
Passenger side central locking not working
Radio still on Jap frequencies

Main worry of the moment is a rattle / grinding noise when in neutral - goes as soon as I depress the clutch - only seems to do it once the car is warmed up - any suggestions?

Go on - give it to me straight - I'm a man, I can take it !!!!

I'll get round to filling in profile / pictures of the beast in due course.

Oh - by the way - adrianp is it? Ipswich Beat owner - the yellow one with Honda Beat down the side - saw it down Sproughton Road and it inspired me to buy a BEAT - so "YOU ARE TO BLAME". Your website has been invaded by a program that trys to download something or other - best you look into it.
