I shall have it at the end of the week (Fri.20thOct.) My 20 year old marvelous, orange CRV has failed it's TUV (German MOT) It is absolutely immaculate, with every extra - automatic, sunroof, sidebars, towing hitch, picnic table, recent summer and winter tyres, exhaust and rad. everything in complete working order, fully serviced by Honda BUT, inside the cills rust has been silently working away and it is, so I'm told, beyond repair.
I'm down-sizing to a jazz which has to be an automatic, difficult to find in this part of the world, its a bit older than I wanted but has only done 90,000km (60,000 miles, one owner, full Honda service history). Here I go.
