Greetings from Bristol! We have recently bought a 2017 reg SE Navi CVT in Skyride Blue. We bought it unseen from a Honda dealer 2 hours away, and they delivered it. I would have been a bit nervous buying it unseen if it didn’t have the full Honda service history and 12 month Honda warranty.
This is our first ever car - we have always just used hire cars and club cars, but we have a small child so it is a lot easier to have our own car.
It’s a great town car and quite nippy when required – good visibility and very practical. Refined enough on the motorway too. And I genuinely like the CVT transmission, although I realise it is not everyone's cup of tea...!
Comfort could be better: the driver’s seat offers little leg support (partly my fault for being quite tall) and the armrests (centre and door) have almost zero padding.
I’m glad that I didn’t get put off by the many average or negative reviews of the car that I found on motoring websites. This forum helped us to make the right decision. Also, I have never driven a Mk1 or a Mk2 (or a Mk4 for that matter) so I can’t make any comparisons, good or bad! Overall, very happy 3 weeks in.
