Advantages: Fuel economy, performance, accommodation, dealer friendliness. Disadvantages: Minor niggles, servicing cost can be high, rattles.
We bought our Honda Civic 1.5i VTEC-E in 1997 when it was 7 months old, but just had delivery mileage. Our local Perth dealer (Weir Honda) were offering what was a nearly new car with around £1500 off the new price. We knew from looking at comparative prices that this was a good deal and managed to get mudflaps and carpet mats fitted as well.
Broadly the experience has been very good - the dealer has been helpful in sorting out several minor problems. These were rattle in top end of the engine (a minor adjustment), a missing jacking point on the rear nearside, a silencer which gave out after 2 years' use, squeaky ventilation fan and a stuck sunroof (x2).

There are any number of competitors from Japanese, Korean and European countries, probably its' most likely competition can be found in the form of the Ford Fiesta, Mitsubishi Colt, Nissan Micra and Vauxhall Corsa, all of which offer a much larger ...

of spending weekends trailing around garages looking for the right motor only to find it was already sold or had body damage etc. This happy mood did not last long after I had my first dealing with Minories Honda dealer in Gateshead next to the Metrocentre.
Sitting in the corner covered in muck was a Breeze blue Corsa. The state of the car did not bother me, as I knew it would clean up nice because after all it was only 6-7 months old. I was asked if the salesman could help me, and off we went. First off all I wanted to know the price of the vehicle and off we went to talk about the car.

Mileage?
Was the Vauxhall warranty and breakdown cover still valid for the remained of the three years?
And the most important the price?
I had previously been into ...
