Advantages: Stylish, good sat nav, Loads of room in car

Disadvantages: Voice control is useless & no AUX output

I had the Honda Civic 1.8 SE as my company car for nearly a year and when I left my job I had to give the car up which I was pretty gutted about as I really liked this car.
To start with I think this car looks amazing it is a very futuristic looking car. The style of the boot means that the boot space available is simply massive. I in fact drove me and 4 friends home from Reading music festival last year and we all had a tent each and camping equipment. The amount we crammed in was huge, this car really is a tardis.
The performance and fuel economy of this car is also very good. I took this car to Germany and it was more than capable of cruising on the autobahn with for people in the car at 120mph and it was also good at pulling away at junctions.
The handling of the car is nice and I was never left without grip even in wet conditions. The VSA is also very handy.
The features this car has included are great. The sat nav is very easy to use although trying to use it with voice control is just impossible. The Bluetooth hands free kit was just a God send & the voice activation for that was actually pretty accurate. The CD player allows MP3 discs which was really useful and the display would give full track and artist listings. For some reason though a AUX out was not included.
On the down side the panel by the window seemed to move as the window was open and shut but it was never lose so not sure why it did this. Also as I said the voice control for the sat nav, radio and aircon is just pathetic and really is imposable to use as it never understands you. It is much easier to just use the buttons!!

Summary: I loved having this car and wish I still did.
