Hello everyone Jazz advance 23

[teralek]

Hi everyone. I'm back in the club.
After driving a 2008 Jazz for many years and then a 2010 Civic, I'm coming back to the Jazz. I'm picking it up on Monday a 2023 facelift version advance. This is my first time owning a automatic gearbox.

Any tips or tricks?

Just enjoy it; it is amazing to drive. Best automatic ever, the e:hev system.
I would recommend shutting the climate system off when parking, so that on the next restart the engine will be off and you can drive off on electricity alone. Turn it on once you are out of town or when the engine starts up. That saves a few mpg 

Good luck!

Thanks.
My plan is to keep this car for a very long time. Now that I have had Honda's for many years I know their strong and weak points.
I plan to apply a ceramic paint coating to preserve the paint over the years and apply anti rust treatment like lanoguard under the chassis.

Hello and welcome.

I was almost going for the Corolla like yours. The problem with the Corolla is that I have a 9 year old kid who is soon going to be a teen and we drive mostly in the city... But still I wonder because I want to keep the car as long as possible and Toyota is legendary in that regard.

I would not worry about Honda longevity just take notice of the amount of mk1 Jazzes still on the road some of which are upto 24 years old, mechanically they are solid - the only thing that seems to kill them is rust but then that probably applies to most cars of that age.
