I took an Advance for a test drive, loved it , and bought one. Your review is spot-on and I agree with everything you said about the car. It's worth every penny. Many thanks!

I've had my Civic in sport trim for 13 months now and I love it. Excellent fuel economy and great fun on a twisty road.

I have this car in the same colour. I must say, it’s very, very good.

A very detailed and informative review. Thank you. This is an amazing car with great handling (as you would expect from Honda), fantastic fuel economy and an excellent build quality. I swapped my Skoda Octavia Vrs for the Advance model in Sonic Grey and I have not been disappointed. I have never bought a Honda before and I suspect I will one of many “conquest” purchases. Keep up the excellent independent reviews. It is always good to see a review which is not just a sponsored advert!!

Nice review. love the panoramic roof.. and also the colour!!

I have the sport version very nice to drive

Super Review, brief an to the point. Being HONDA BIAS, since 2005, obviously I can only agree with your comments....I must, however, add the following for those Motorists out there that are still uncertain about which vehicle manufacturer to head for. Since my 2005 Honda Accord, 3 x CR-V, Jazz, CIVIC 10th Series, now a Hybrid CR-V, I have NEVER experienced one issue or problems, NOT ONE. my Wife has a simply Stunning 2010 Honda CR-Z hybrid, (Manual 6 Speed), Sport...again NOT ONE issue of concern, added to which the mileage figures are around 44mpg...(I get 42/46 mpg from my CR-V Hybrid)...so I am more than certain the figures quoted of 50mpg + for the NEW CIVIC are going to be correct. Granted...HONDA VEHICLES are a little more expensive to purchase, initially, but when you weigh this up with continuous TROUBLE FREE, comfortable Motoring to "Sums" even out very quickly. Enjoy...G.A.R.

Subscibed with all notifications - because Jim is on board and I really value his oplnions and knowledge. Welcome Jim 🤟

Exactly the car i am getting at the end of the month, Jim. Currently own a FK8, but when my dealer asked me to test drive the EHEV i was very impressed. Not only did it have some punch, but the handling was very impressive taking corners with no body roll and no understeer. Also the Advance comes with a nice 12 speaker Bose and panoramic roof plus other goodies. The 0-60 has been timed at under 7 secs which is pretty impressive. Icing on the cake, mpg 55-65.

Nice one Jim, love that colour. Can't wait to see the type r

Just purchased a new Civic Advance in white and loving every drive.😎

It is a nice and great presentation or talk from the person well explaining the features of the car in a very nice and quiet way I really appreciated him 👍

Good review Jim, thanks for understanding the transmission and how it works, it was a good explanation .

Bought the base Elegance model in blue metallic for £29500 with 5 years free servicing. Main reason was for the 17" wheels which gives the car a great ride and lower road noise than the 18" demonstrator I tried. The Elegance is still very well equipped and I didn't think the few extras on the sport such as 1/2 leather seats was worth it and the only reason for getting the top Advance model is the pano sunroof and leather seats that I think are not genuine leather. Apparently this now retails for £40,000 if you spec with metallic paint ! It has taken 9months for the car but worth the wait. Unfortunately the Elegance is not currently available to order and its not on the configurator. The car is brilliant in all the ways you pointed out in your video.

Great video! 👏👏👏 I own a Sport FL4 and totally agree with you. And mine has that wonderful blue colour. Love it

We've had the civic hybrid sport in crystal blue metallic since the end of June and its a brilliant car. Economy and performance very surprising. As others have said the prices have increased already!

Brilliant review…… going to book a test drive.

Thanks Jim. I'm glad Honda are keeping up with the pricier opposition 😍🤩 I do love that colour too...I even have to acknowledge the blue is better than what a red might be...but only on this occasion 😉

I've had mine for a good few months and it's absolutely brilliant, fortunately I got mine back when the list price was £36,920 all in with the premium blue colour 😂

I had no idea the hybrid civic was already in England. I’m thinking about getting one in the U.S. early next year

Great gig Jim. Take it easy !!!!!

Looks a great car Jim. Ive ran Hondas for the lasy 15 year's and i can honestly say they are the best cars I've ever owned. Just switched to Toyota because Honda stopped manufacturing in the UK. Its just a me thing that i like to support companies that actually manufacture in the UK.

Can't wait til it hits the US shores. Currently in an Acura TSX that I love. Great to see bold color on cars.

Hello ,Love the new Civic . BUT can you tell me how to turn off the Ding Ding Sound when you go slightly over the speed limit in normal driving.

Totally agree with everything said but wish Honda hadn't increased the price recently... By the way I think it's synthetic leather - which is usually better than real hide.... The blue is very nice and best appreciated on real life..

Here we go

One of the best none performance cars on the market today. Shame about the price. Its 41k new which is eye watering for a civic, and still 35k with a few miles on it in advanced. Which is more than it was new at release! Its gone up 5k

Same engine set up as the 10 year old Vauxhall Ampera; they really were ahead of their time

I have a new crv hybrid with set up as the Civic can you stop the car leave it in drive or reverse and just switch off the power button mine seems to put it into park when you do this am I doing something wrong. This was the system I used in my Peugeot 3008 when shutting the engine off

What’s the ground clearance on this car like? Seems a little too low. Can it mount the kerb when parking in marked bays. And what about high speed bumps? Do you need to drive carefully, especially when the car is fully loaded?

Lovely car but price is way off mark

It seems that all car testers have to wave the left hand around and stare at the camera. Not really keeping safe and a driving test fail. A good commentary though 9/10

👏👏👏

Modern Men and Motors?!?! i must be taking crazy pills!

I got into one and I didn't like the materials and especially the seats. It's so hard to make good seats, because you always have to sit in them... And a fine armrest, for example, as if you have stones in your elbow on a long drive.... 😮pfff

£40k for a civic. Pass
