Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

  • Economy

    Value

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Ex-demo, so got £2000 off new price even though car was in perfect condition with average mileage.

    Costs

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Good fuel consumption and cheap insurance (Group 6), so running costs are low.

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Drives well with smooth gear changes (passengers have commented) and holds the road well, although there's just a touch of understeer.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    It might not be a Type-R, but it's oustanding for the price, insurance group and size of engine. Put's other similar cars to shame!

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    5 out of 5 5.0

    No problems at all. It's a Honda. Need I say more?

    It definitely pulls the looks, due to its close resemblance to Type-R. May not get the same looks in some colours, but shiny pearl black definitely attracts attention!

    Comfort

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Ride can be a bit bumpy, but that's the sacrifice you make for stiff suspension and good handling. Interior comfot is excellent - comfortable seats, climate control, aircon, cup holders, 'loads' of room (front and back).

  • Security and Service

    Security

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Honda alarm /immobiliser as standard plus Honda Superlocks (deadlocks). Can lock car from inside with button on drivers door. Car will re-lock itself if you don't open the door/boot within 30 seconds of unlocking (nice added feature!).

    Service

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Not had its first service yet, but service from sales staff was excellent.
