The Honda Prelude is one of the most fascinating cars in my eyes. It is reliable, attractive and fun to drive at the same time. And it is a rare car, which you don't see every day.

Technical data Type: BB3 Designation: 2.0i Built: 1992-1996 Cylinder capacity: 1997 ccm Motor power: 98 kw (133 hp) Weight: 1220 kg Top speed: 201 kph

I bought my first Prelude BB3 in 1999, followed by a Porsche Boxster in 2003. But only two and a half years later I missed my Prelude so much that I changed the Porsche for another BB3, which is hard to find in a good shape these days. :)

This car is a reliable companion on all of my North Sea trips during the summers.

My first Prelude.

Below you will find pictures of my first Prelude, which I owned during 1999 and 2003. I gave it to a girl friend, and it is still working today after far more than 300000 km with its first engine.

My second Prelude.

I spent many months to look for a Prelude in a perfect condition, and in August 2005 I finally succeeded at Honda Pagel in Hannover. Ok, I wanted a BB1 in a different colour than my first one, but now I got a BB3 in the same colour again. But I am happy. There was no corrosion and the car only ran about 89000 km in 11 years.
