Jazz SR

[csp]

Has anyone seen a SR model yet? My local dealer seems to have just a Jazz EX and a Crosstar, looking on line most other dealers seem to have the same so I suspect the first batch to arrive did not include the SR models but I might be wrong.

[Muldoon]

No me neither. All seem to be Ex models, no SR or even the base SE. I expect they pushed out a batch of the top models to seem impressive for launch having all the top kit fitted. Mid spec SR seems the sweet spot getting Apple Car Play and alloys but no need for the EX with 16 inch wheels to spoil the ride quality and the extra gizmos.

I would be tempted by the SE but lack of Apple Car Play a major problem - so useful to connect up and use phone features and maps.

While I would like to buy an SR model the biggest problem that has TOTALLY stopped me from deciding to make a purchase is the appalling offerings of paint colours.
This would normally not be a deal breaker but I find the current choice offers nothing I could live with.

Honda colours from times past have been far more interesting, vivid (some excessively so) and have at least given the customer a much broader choice.
My 2011 Jazz is Azure Blue metallic and we have a Passion Red Civic.

Honda have committed a major Faux Pas Here in the UK, the CRV colour choice is also little better.

VERY DISAPPOINTING!

I知 not sure about the front end design. But I知 also not keen on the Crosstar look either.

I think it looks lovely and would love a red one. I think the transmission sounds a great affair and cannot wait to try one out.

Went to my local dealer this morning after reading this. They had a red Cross star, a blue and white EX. Tbh, I quite like it because it looks like my MK2 compared to MK3. But two things I am not happy about-no alloys on the SE and Auto dimming interior Mirror. I don't know why Honda never fitted this on their Jazz. With so much bright LED lights, I hate driving at night.

I seem to remember that an early review said that the design had been softened to please Japanese ladies, who found the Mk3 too aggressive!  You can't see it when you're at the wheel, so who cares?

You and me both. Have had a good look at all the specs and I think it is an exciting development. Bit pricey for me as a new car (I could only afford my Mk3 on the basis of hefty end of line discounts and incentives) but I like everything about it and the metallic red would be my choice. Faster, more economical - what's not to like?

What's not to like, in my opinion, is no spare wheel nor even space for one. Call me old-fashioned but I don't feel comfortable about this.

Good point although that applies to a lot of cars these days.

Luck of the draw I guess, I致e had a 2011 hybrid for nearly nine years/65k miles and never used the spare that aI have for it.....but I still share your concern!

Although I agree with you it wouldn't stop me from buying one. I would just put a spare in the boot.

You would lose most of the boot space and the spare really needs to be held down or in an accident it is quite a heavy object to be flying around.

Fair point culzean, although how much room do I need in the boot day to day (more if i'm going on holiday I suppose).It would be held down in my case by my wifes wheelchair which is tied down.
One of the reasons for buying a Jazz was because a wheelchair easily fits in the boot without folding any seats.
