Economy
Value
paid next to nothing if comparing it to some of it's rivals of similar spec.
Costs
Honda dealer useless when taking it for diagnostic fault wasn't worth the money charged. Fuel reasonable for 3.2 until putting foot down hard.

On the road
Driving
easily driven. One of the most spacious cars I've had. even boot is huge for a saloon.
Performance
goes like a rocket beating BMW328's into early submission round country roads not so impressive with body roll being a factor. Doing this as the revs go up fuel goes down quicker.

Living with it
Reliability
Lots of problems with radiator, even now inexplicably the heating stops working temp gauge rises hits red and everything returns to normal. That said all electrics work. And engine seems to go on forever.
Image
Car is dull to the casual glance, but big wheels and exhaust make you look twice.
Comfort
leather seats need to be heated in winter and sliding across them at mid point during spirited drive can be unnerving.

Security and Service
Security
Never had cause for concern. Car is so plain never gets looked at twice. Good boot lock off switch in glove box, if you can figure it out.
Service
Honda were expensive for diagnostic fault still haven't called for ABS sensor that was on order Fault corrected itself days later, after being told it needed a new unit as the old one had been damaged.
