    Stay clear of dealer servicing to save a few pennies. Can be thirsty around town, designed for A roads and Motorways.

    Driving

    Very smooth, positive, assured feel to the car.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    With nearly 160 horses under the bonnet she can sure still fly especially when you kick past 4500rpm.

    Like a lot of Hondas, can look rather understated but I like it like that.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Good seats, air con, electric sunroof, electric windows, leather interior, very good all round.
