  • Economy

    Value

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Wouldn't buy one from new (too pricey), but a lot of second-hand car for your money.

    Costs

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Not bad for a car in this class.

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Drives like a saloon car with handling to match. Surprisingly agile.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Another reviewer said that other 'proper' 4x4 owners laugh at you - not the case when you make them look like they are nailed to the ground at traffic lights... the torque on this engine is amazing.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Legendary Honda reliability.

    Looks great, turns heads even now over 5 years from new.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Ride quality of a saloon car and a similar interior. Not over the top with gadgets though.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Average, immobiliser as standard. Unfortunately alarm must be fitted as extra.

    Service

    2 out of 5 2.0

    The only gripe I have with this car is due to the Honda main dealer being completely incompetent in everything they do. I think they were trained at the circus.
