Summary
What does this car say about you?
Practical and reliable.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Generally impressed.
Would you buy this car again and why?
Yes. There are a few niggles though. The mid-parcel shelf seems to generally get in the way and is incompatible with the optional rubber tray protector. The plastics generally scuff quite badly around the doors seats etc- not great for a car of this value. The sat nav is great to use but far less precise with directions than a tom-tom. If Honda sort these out then it would be perfect.
What are you likely to buy next?
Could be another CRV
