I far prefer a mechanical parking brake. The electric one is on or off, no other choice. With a lever you have control, no chance of an electrical hiccup.

Regarding the tilting passenger mirror, the blurb at the dealers reckoned the EX had it, as posted here with a photo, somewhere.

Has anyone got a MY21 EX that can confirm ?

As far as MY changes go I do know that both the first release 2006 8G and 2012 9G Civics had issues that were fixed for the second MY but not retro fixed.

These testers who run about in those fancy painted prototypes seem to miss important errors that are picked up in days by new owners.

My Nov 20 EX definitely does NOT have the tilting mirror. One of my gripes, along with no height adjustment for passenger seat.

If it is a new addition for the MY21 then it won't appear until about Mar 21 vehicles.

The parking brake, is it a friction brake, applying a pad against a brake disc, or is it the parking pawl inside the transmission gearbox? Or are three two parking brake systems on the Jazz, parking brake pawl and  brake disc?

P -> gearbox.
Parking brake (or hold) -> rear disks.

Whilst idly browsing through the configurator, I came across this page. Oddly, whilst the tilting mirrors are headlined, there's no mention in the detailed list of features.

I ordered a new Jazz EX Hybrid (in Red again!!) last Monday for, delivery next Monday.
I did ask about any changes for MY2021 (or should that be MY2022 seeing as we are already in 2021) and was told No changes in the pipeline.
Checking back through my old paperwork, I find this will be Jazz No.6.

I noticed that the steering wheel is described in the brochure as leather covered, but the demo model certainly was not like my current EX. It had got a cheap plastic feel about it.
Would any other EX owners like to comment on that ?

What is the current 10th character VIN letter ?

Any owners who definitely have a 2020 MY can they post this letter then I can see whether the showroom models are MY20 or MY21 next time I'm there.

So if you have a MY21 then those who purchased last year will be "L"

Useful info, thanks.

So, second question, does the passenger mirror move to another viewing angle when reverse is selected ?

All current Mk4 Jazz are 21YM. 22YM will be in the market very shortly.

20YM Jazz were Mk3 (GK) model.

Don't know whether it means any thing, but the VIN continues, MS22****.

I'm not so sure about that. My Crosstar (purchased July 2020) also features "M" as 10th digit in the VIN.

Yes, thanks.

Steve_M has clarified the position regarding the MY series. Unlike my Civics where the MY changed annually in March, the Jazz is still on the original production version but will soon be the MY22. Be interesting to see what changes. Not always for the better though.

My current Civic is a MY13, bought at release March 2013. The MY13 had some changes from the MY12 that I wanted like DAB radio and a fixed iMid regarding viewing options. However it lost the front seat bolt covers and spare wheel toolkit.

That must mean that the dealers info, on a board next to a MK4 EX and listing a tilting passenger mirror on reverse was wrong as no one has it.
