Plus see the number plates: it says 68 and that means it's from between September 2018 and March 2019. Period. Not nice.

    I own a Civic and I have to disagree with alot she is saying. Sponge brakes ? I find the brakes to have excellent feedback, maybe even a bit too grabby .. actually.
    my bmw 220 didn't drive much better. But cruise Control and Honda sense isn't as refined as in the BMW. The Civic is also more fun to drive. Except you can't push the tail out. Wich was fun in the bmw so all in all I think a gasoline bmw is more fun to drive. But I also keep reliability and maintenance cost in check.

    If you buy a Honda, you are buying the most reliable car brand on the planet. No other car manufacturer can hold a candle to Honda's enviable reliability ratings. Even Toyota have long lost their credibility for producing reliable vehicles because they have been too busy cutting corners and using other Car manufacturers parts in their vehicles, just look at the new Toyota Supra - Completely Full of BMW parts (Junk) !!! ... Trust me i've owned Honda's for over 20 years and they are as reliable as the universe. I will always buy a Honda.

    A civic will generally last at least 5 years longer than a Golf and will cost far less in repairs over the ownership period.
    I just junked my Accord after 20 years, 250,000km (My fault for blowing an O-ring in the engine) and replaced it with the 1.5 Civic. While the Civic is a really nice car which I'm very happy with, I do miss the extra usability of the old Accord hatchback. HONDA, give us back the Accord!

    The civic handles resonably well? Is on of the best cars in terms of handling. Search for a moose test.
    Take both civic and ford focus on a twisty road and the you can say which has better handling and which one is more fun to drive. If you drive in a straight line for 10 km you can’t compare them.

    In the US and Canada you see the Civic everywhere simply because it's actually a reliable car, the gearbox is like day one, the interior is not warn off, the suspension doesn't need to be replaced nor the engine's (thats very common with Ford or VAG products)!

      K Jay - That’s disappointing (but not as much as the whatcar review!). As I hardly ever see one on the road, it seem to need a lot of changes to increase its appeal.

    It does quite everything good, it might not be class leading in any box but it manages to tick of every box so we end up with a big car that is well equiped, handels ell enough and performs well enough. aAnd for looks? Not as good looking as a Mazda 3 but for sure less boring than a Focus or a Golf. I would consider.
