Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

Economy
Value
It's expensive but it's worth it. Still a cheaper than German cars but with much more kit.
Costs
Fixed price servicing seems reasonable and only a little more expensive than Vauxhall but hopefully a lot better. 50 mpg on the motorway doing 85.

On the road
Driving
Superb drive with great road holding and grip. I didn't know diesels could be this good. The gearbox is very slick and short throw also.
Performance
In gear acceleration is excellent and never ceases to amaze. Better than the 3.2 V6 Vectra Auto I had - believe it or not.

Living with it
Reliability
Not had it long but I hope and expect the traditional Honda reliabity.
Image
Struggling to make it as a compact exec but it's a great car - whatever label you put on it.
Comfort
Really good seats - no back pain at all and a comfortable ride. Some road noise but it's well contained
