HR-v

Just happen to see a brand new HR-V being filled prior to customer pick - chatted to the Honda driver - says they and jazz's are selling like hot cakes.

I've not seen many Jazz on the road though.

After a supply problem, people on the Civic forum are posting they now have dates for their 11G orders.
Let's be careful out there !

They may have customers eager to buy any hot cakes as they come out of the oven, but its still quite a small oven. And some of the successful buyers may not eat their cakes very often in Public - only nibbling a few crumbs per year.   ;D
   When I bought my Ex in october  2021 I saw very few other mk 4 Jazz  on the road. You see a few more now,but thats  with nearly 2 years extra production, and some very positive reviews.

Seen quite a few in my area, both Jazz and Cross. Our local dealer (North Lincolnshire) has said that the Jazz is doing very well. They only have 2 ex demos for sale on the forecourt, as yet no trade ins.

They might have sold more if they had installed a height adjustable passenger seat! Me for one and 2 others I know of!!

I too have criticized here the fact that the passenger seat is not adjustable in height. My better half  :-* in particular is not really happy about that.
However, it was certainly not a deal breaker for us, also because the only other candidate, the Toyota Yaris, also has no height-adjustable passenger seat and the seat height is almost 6 (six!) cm. or some 2 1/4 inches lower than in the Jazz.
We just think Honda likes to keep us nimble at our age. ;D

Seeing a lot of 71 & 22 reg ones in our area, only 1 mile from a Honda main dealer.

So that will be the technicians, giving ‘em a test drive, after the service!

I suppose that those technicians give cars of clients (it means sold cars) a test drive.
Those clients, after service, just hide their cars in their garages til the next service or what?

AFAIK test drives are only performed if any work has been performed on critical systems like brakes. After mine has been serviced the mileage hasn't increased by more than a few yards.

Understand what you’re saying but it’s such a simple thing to fix that it sums up Honda’s arrogance and indifference to their customers in UK.

No these were "senior" drivers so not technicians

After one year sold my crosstar for the new HRV for more than I paid for it, only seen one HRV since but loads of Crosstar.  The HRV is a dream considering its a larger version of the Jazz.  8)
