Economy
Costs
Consumption depends on how you drive, low 20s if in town/B roads. Once saw 39 mpg on a motorway!

Driving
Disaster. Steering feel and weight are just atrocious. The steering weights up at random points during cornering, and is then reluctant to centre on constant radius bends on the motorway. The ride is poorly damped esp. at the rear.
Performance
Quick in VTEC, but you often find that by the time you have got there, you are well over speed limit and everyone else is not that far behind.

Becoming the chav hatch of the decade.
Comfort
Actually quite a big car. Front seats hold you really well.
