What does this car say about you?

Looking really posh.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

Looks great in all angles. Mistaken for a BMW and Merc

Would you buy this car again and why?

Yes. I would but the same model but with the later date of manufacture as there is quite a lot of extra options as standard that is good value for money

The latest version as well the S2000.

Franchise

No

£13,000

When did you buy the car?

August 2008

Did you get a good deal and why?

I got a good deal from the part exchange of my low mileage 2004 Civic Sport. They payed me just £1000 under the market value which I was very delighted

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Sat Nav, HFT, 18inch alloys and Cruise control.

What was the dealer like?

The dealer was very accomodating and helpful. Maybe because I always bought my cars there for the last 9 years and referred a few friends to them

What's it like to drive?

Very comfortable on long drives, cruise control is superb.sharp on conering but with a slightly higher roll than my civic.

What's it like to park?

Can be difficult to park due to the large boot. Fitting a parking sensor would be a good investment which I did.

Have you had any problems with the car?

None so far, except the time when I left the lights on despite the warning tone that discharged the battery. But it jumpstarting it was a doodle.

What's most practical about your car?

Very spacious,lots of space to store things.Build quality

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Honda fully interactive sat nav and commands as well the traction control
