My F R V, this car has been helping me live my life to full extent for over two years now. theres plenty of room all round with space for luggage in the boot. personally i have three children and a partner and we are always going on weekends away. living on an island means that regular trips on a ferry or seacat are a good way to see family but also go shopping,having boot space is very important. typical of a honda is its reliability ,but my best mpg is 50mpg. on average my mpg is 35mpg. i would recommend this vehicle if you want more cabin space than a civic. does suffer from noise in the cabin from road noise,also restricted views due to large door beams at the sides of the windscreen.
also had picnic tables fitted on the two outside seats for rear passengers,they are just like the ones used on airplanes. they have been a great hit with my children and easy to use.
roof rails had also been fitted and are a great help when cleaning the roof of the car/mpv. quite an expensive ladder but do increase the sporty look of my vehicle.
£300 pound also paid for my servicing for five years and feels great to put in for a service and not have to pay,so far anyway.
my only problem that i found so far is that the seat belts d'ont retract quick enough and have been slammed at the side panel when the door is closed
a change of alloys and darkened windows has lead to a more sporty looking m p v.
seating is great for when the children decide to disagree with each other and need space away from each other! the front middle seat can be moved back to provide more leg room in the front,to compensate this the middle rear seat also moves back and reclines a little for comfort.
plenty of room for storage of tissues,wipes and cd's.
in the boot there is a pull out cover to stop people from looking in and taking a fancy to your belongings,theres also a second cigarette lighter socket for either charging a ninetendo or a portable dvd player .
the heated wing mirrors also come to life either on a wet day or a frosty morning.
on the switches for the electric windows there's a master switch to stop the children from having races with each other.
sorry if i keep jumping from one part of the car to another but things keep popping into my head. i hope all this helps you but if you need any other info then please don't hesitate in contacting me. bluemoons.
I don't personally care what anybody says about Buffy the Vampire Slayer; they can call it strictly for teenagers, shallow, mindless or whatever, I personally believe that it was one of the most revolutionary shows in television history. It was just... more
For me, one of the greatest tests for a television series is how it is viewed once the series has finished and the inevitable hype has died down. This is particularly the case with "topical" programmes that have a tendency to age very badly.

This has got to be one of the easiest, most fun and most painless ways to help children to learn to read. My daughters primary school uses these books and all the children can read by the time they reach year 2. I would recommend them to any parent who more
I first came across Miss Cherie Dior in one of my glossy magazines over Christmas last year. The perfume was being advertised over a two page spread with a small sachet tester in the corner. If I'm honest I have never been a real fan of Christian Dior... more
It was the summer of '96, and I was a '90s girl. I was happy with my life (and Mitsubishi Lancer GLX) and thought it was complete.. that was until I laid eyes on her...
