Overview

The Honda CRX is a two seat coupe with a hard top which can be removed by hand and placed in the boot, or alternatively, an electrically removable option was available (that pre-dates the Mercedes-Benz SLK by four years). It looks like it is mid-engined along the lines of a Toyota MR-2, but is in fact front-wheel-driver and closely related to the Civic.

If it is badged Del Sol, then it’s an import and may have a engine not available in the UK. The forerunner to today’s coupe-convertibles.
