Fuel efficient and Honda servicing is reasonable too.

On the road
Driving
Steering light but involving, gear change smooth, good visability.
Performance
With a 115bhp VTEC engine the car is very responsive, less so in fourth though. Great to through around corners. Sporty for a 1.5 engine.

Living with it
Reliability
It's a Honda! I think regular servicing is essential though.
Image
Understated and classic. The best generation of Civic.
Comfort
Being over 6' tall space is essential and the Civic has plenty, less so for the rear passengers. Seats are very comfortable for long journeys with lumber adjustment.

Security and Service
Security
Average security: only central locking and immobiliser as standard.
