Honda Civic Hatchback (2006 - 2011) 1.8 i-VTEC EX 5d Owner Review

Pros: - good fuel economy even in one of the most crowded city in Europe (32 avg. mpg) - interesting rear-view window which blocks high beams of crap drivers, so that your eyes don't get blasted with heavy light during the night - large interior - "Magic Seats" which could fit in a large bed frame from IKEA - MALM family - comfortable front seats and huge front seat space. Fitted 1,9m tall person confortably - dual-zone air con. - nice interior lights, in particular the large rev counter with blue halo light - natural aspirated 140 bhp engine, no turbo crap - sporty metal pedals - great maneuverability / handling - front and back electric windows - heated front seats - false floor in the bonnet where you could store a backup wheel or extra luggage - panoramic roof - rear park sensors - front headlight washing - good looking even if it's 10 years old now Cons: - relatively weak hardened paint. Don't use a brush on car washing's - it would do better with a bit more sound insulation - suspension is firm and over relatively big bump you hear it rocking, but that's a trade off because of the sporty handling - in time the plastic wheel arches will give you some hard time - used cars usually have marks on the corner edges of the rear bumper (plastic) which tells you that this car is hard to park back-side because it has an overall rounded shape in the back, and a park sensor is a must for it. - lower road height that the average car, so you can't drive on a bad road nor could you park better on high sidewalk borders - service staff have a hard time finding the anchor point to place the pneumatic equipment in order to lift up your car (when you want to change a tire)
