I would liken the fixation of car reviewers on ageist comments regarding Honda as a maker, and the Jazz in particular, to jokes about Skoda back in the day - which went on for AGES AND AGES after they had become desirable cars.
It becomes ingrained in the psyche. People in the pub STILL say they wouldn't buy a Skoda because theyre uncool, harking back to when they were actually uncool 25 years plus ago. Attitudes change glacially.
So get used to it, and take heart. By 2050-ish motoring reviewers will have moved on to another object of venom
Ive heard talk on this site about VW DSG gearboxes in the same vein
so even club jazz is not immune
