Looked great, quick car

What was the dealer like?

Excellent. Very helpful and keen to meet my expectations. Great after sales experience as well

What's it like to drive?

Brilliant. Suspension was firm but not overly so. No teeth rattling in this car. It handled superbly, was responsive in every gear and made every journey feel fun.

What's it like to park?

Very easy, as its not a big car, and visibility is good all round.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Absolutely nothing apart from an ecu update due to known power loss issue. Initially worried about this, it was sorted and remained trouble free until I had to sell it for a family car, which is more than I can say for the Honda Civic Type S that i p/x'd for the 207

What's most practical about your car?

Pace and economy. Despite its turbo engine, on town routes I averaged 35 miles to the gallon and nearly 40 on longer drives.

Automatic dimming rear view mirror
