Check the steering before you buy for stiff and cloggy steering especially on the motorways its usally an indication to faulty rack which will need replacing (NEW)  resetting this will only last you a short time and not fix the problem , :)

Thanks for the replys! Didn't realise I had any.
Is the power steering unit like the ep3?

Budget is a max of £3,800 but would prefer to spend less to save money. Not bothered about steering wheel controls or body kit.

But I would prefer fog lights, if anyone could point me in the right direction of purchasing a set?

Also anyone fitted a set of Accord Type R seat into a jazz? As I have a set sat in my room.

Thanks!

Try the FAQ and in particular read the common faults section which contains links to topics dealing with the issues in-depth: http://clubjazz.org/forum/index.php?topic=1156.0

Yes the Jazz has EPS (Electric Power Steering) like the EP3 Civics but I don't know if it is the exact same system. Having driven an EP3 and Jazz back-to-back I found in my opinion the Jazz's steering to be heavier.

Budget is a max of £3,800 but would prefer to spend less to save money. Not bothered about steering wheel controls or body kit.

Always buy on condition and history (MoTs, service history) rather than miles and age.

But I would prefer fog lights, if anyone could point me in the right direction of purchasing a set?

Ebay would be your best bet.
