Was down at the dealers yesterday picking up some parts, its Nissan and Honda.

Decided after seeing the review on 5th-gear to have a look at the new Civic.

All I can say is wow…. Its stunning in every detail. Car looks a bit bigger than the Focus too.

So many small style and engineering details have been thought about by Honda.

It’s moved the game on so far the VW, Citroen and Ford must be cr@ping themselves. I might have a wee test drive, not that I would buy a new car, but with view to maybe getting one next year. 2.2 diesel has 140bhp and 250lbft, it ticks all the right boxes.

Anyone who is in the market for a new car that size would be bonkers not to buy the Honda.

I agree, it seems to have moved the sector forward in everything apart from appearance. Not a huge fan of the styling myself TBH....

It looks much much better in the flesh, and its a major move away from all the other boxes that look the same (Golf,Astra,Focus) etc

I just wish i had £18k to get one right now!!!!

Aye, I know what you mean about looking different to the clones that are currently in the sector... and I wasnt a big fan of the current Civic's until I actually had a good poke around a Type-R that a friend bought just after they were released.

Personally don't like the back end, but the rest is very nice.
