Hi Guys
Today I reached the 5000 miles point on my Mk4, since purchase in April.
The attached photo shows the fuel consumption over that distance as 68.6 mpg, covering a wide variety of roads. narrow single track to motorways. This figure represents an improvement in consumption of around 25%, as compared with my previous Mk3 Jazz, which is probably just as well, given the current cost of fuel.
Do I still like the car? Yes, I still think it is the best Jazz yet and just a very nice place to be.
My only real concern, like so many others on this forum, are the so called safety gizmos and in particular the RDMS. Concerns expressed by other members, range for annoying to downright dangerous, I've mentioned before about the 'Hand of God' intervening on narrow country lanes and attempting to steer me into the path of an oncoming car. In my view the feature is totally unsuited to the vast majority of UK roads.
Do Honda actually read these posts. They really need to issue a software update, whereby the RDMS can be permanently disabled, at the discretion of the driver, much like LKAS. Having to disable it at every start-up is a real PITA.
Honda, please do something about it !!!!
