HONDA JAZZ 1.4 SE CVT-7. AUTOMATICALLY BETTER?

Advantages: Great Transmission. Smooth Engine. Low Running Costs. Hugely Spacious Interior. Build Quality.
Disadvantages: Messy Dashboard Styling. Uninspiring Exterior Styling.

...WHAT IS IT? The Jazz is Honda's entry into the highly contested and ever popular "supermini" market. It is a five door hatchback, a very simple range to choose from as there are no variants; saloon, convertible etc, all Jazz models therefore share the same "two box" styling. For those of you to whom it may be important, the dimensions are as follows: Length 3845mm x Width 1878mm x Height 1525mm. It is therefore a fairly short, yet wide and tall small car, having a tardis affect inside where it seems much larger than you would think looking at the car sitting next to the pavement. There are any number of competitors from Japanese, Korean and European countries, probably its' most likely competition can be found in the form of the Ford Fiesta, Mitsubishi Colt, Nissan Micra and Vauxhall Corsa, all of which offer a much larger...

Jazz up your motoring

Advantages: space, comfort, flexibility, fuel economy
Disadvantages: absolutely none for me

...Having endured a horrifying M5 breakdown in my 5 year old Escort not long ago, I decided the time was right for a new car. And I wanted brand new, in the hope that I would be guaranteed a few years trouble-free motoring (and hopefully no sudden expenses) with a good warranty and some peace of mind. In my new car, I wanted the following features: Light and easy to drive Comfortable seating and leg room in the back Fuel economy A good sounding stereo Affordable insurance Quiet and reasonably powerful engine Safety Good looks Flexibility (i.e. can take large packages/suitcases etc when necessary) A make with a strong reputation for reliability Extra gizmos Under (preferably considerably under) £10,000 A lot to ask? Yes, but then along came the Honda Jazz? Criteria 1: Light and easy to drive My Honda Jazz drives...

All that Jazz

Advantages: Very very clever package
Disadvantages: almost none

...”. Cute? What the bloody hell does that mean? I’ll tell you what it means. It means I can’t bloody win, that’s what “Cute” means. Even if I get everything else perfect, she can always get me by quoting the “Cute” amendment. “Yes dear, it may be all those things and it may be quicker than a very quick thing but it just isn’t cute”. Bugger. So, I looked at the little Polo Diesel and the Mini One. The only other car that caught my eye was, the Honda Jazz. The Polo does it on economy and build quality, the Mini One on “cute” and the Honda ‘cos I think it’s dead clever. Anyway I took my lovely lady to view all three one Sunday afternoon in May. The Polo didn’t even get a test drive. She sat in it and immediately pronounced it “...

Latin? She Must Be Joking!

Advantages: It's helpful and very satisfying.
Disadvantages: You must study grammar.

...(I?m sure there are members who know all about grammar, and certainly some who are much better Latin scholars than I am. This opinion is meant for absolute beginners, but the textbook and website may be of interest to others). Teach Yourself Book, £6.99 Book and cassettes £15.43 Double CD (available soon). This opinion is certainly one of the biggest challenges I?ve ever taken on, for how on earth do I convince people who?ve never learnt Latin that it?s worth a go ? I can?t employ my usual argument : that it opens doors when you visit a country, and helps you to get much more out of a holiday. But it does have other advantages. How I came to Latin. I did Latin O-level at school, but in a rather unsatisfactory way. A friend and I in the upper sixth suddenly discovered that to do an honours degree in an Arts subject we needed...

Jazz Cafe - Charming, Unpretentious and Worth a Visit!

Advantages: Good Food, Nice Atmosphere and Lively
Disadvantages: Can be a little pricey...

...If you've been to Bath, or live there as I do, you'll have noticed that prices are high and getting decent ordinary, unpretentious food can be an obstacle if you want to sit somewhere nice indoors. The Jazz Cafe sets to remedy this by giving us the option of siting in an atmospheric environment and eating some lovely grub for a reasonable price. Food And Drink You can eat and drink all sorts of things here. The breakfasts range from various things on toast (including eggs) and light bites to the Jazz Cafe Breakfast - which is a double the usual size full English. That'll sort you out for a day walking around Bath! The quality of meat is good, the bacon's thick and the sausages taste really nice. The cooked breakfasts come with two enormous pieces of toast, beans, egg and - get this - REAL mushrooms! Not tinned! The Full...

The Best of British - 'Black Boots on Latin Feet'

Advantages: Smooth without being sappy,melodic without being poppy.Really are a refreshingly different band.
Disadvantages: In one or two of the songs,the spanish guitar solos can be a little self indulgent and go on a bit

...Ezio are one of the best understated British talents of our time and it really is a shame that they dont have a massive following. They have been performing since 1990 in the university town of Cambridge. The band took their name from one of the band members Ezio Lunedei. Black Boots on Latin Feet is their second (but Debut) album (produced by Rupert Hine in 1995). Although the album is new, the band have a mature vibe with lyrics that are honest and reflective (songs like '30 and confused' really struck a chord with me, accurately reflecting the experience of this significant age). The album is refreshingly different to almost all other British bands and is the perfect counter-act to the Brit Pop scene of the time that was aimed at a much younger market. The feel of the music is melodic and smooth but musicians will see how...

Review of Black Boots On Latin Feet - Ezio

Honda jazz 2003-2008

Advantages: Great economy and excellent interior space
Disadvantages: Plain exterior design

...The Honda Jazz is a very fun car, its small and easy to park and the interior design has been well thought out, the space is utilised very well, its almost a small wagon with the seats all folding away and creating a large area to carry things around town, I have noticed a few cases of the CVT transmission developing shuddering when taking off and slight oil leaks from the sump in some cases. Im very impressed with this car, and with the new model now released im sure we will not be dissapointed. Its an all round great town car with many uses, and excellent fuel economy, and they are a reasonably priced vehicle. I have driven the sport model and these are a step up in looks. This cars interior design of the dash was upgraded at some point with nice sterio and speedo design. In my opinion the car will not let you down in reliability...

Why Latin is a useful subject

Advantages: Is a good base for learning most languages
Disadvantages: is difficult but so what?

...When I tell people that Im doing Latin for A level all i hear is "you're mad!!Its a dead language!!What's the point in doing it??"What's the point in doing latin??Hello, its what most modern languages are based on!!If you do latin it is so much easier to learn other languages, simply because you'll have a better understanding of the language you're learning. It's the foundation of so many languages!!Would you build a building without foundations??It might stand for a while but it'll never be perfect. Its the same with languages...if you know the foundations your understanding of the language is so much better!!!So many people nowadays cant even write decent english, and the problem would be far less if people actually understood the language!How many people do you know who actually know what the genitive is??Luckily in English you can...

Time to jazz things up a little

Advantages: loads of fun
Disadvantages: expensive for a small car

...Having been a Big Car driver for many years, I decided a year ago this week to become more environmentally friendly. Looking for something a little less staid than the Saab, Merc and Rover 75 that had been my previous three cars, the five door Honda Jazz caught my attention by jumping up and down excitedly on the forecourt whenever I drove by. I had to have it because it made me feel so happy. I even like the brand name. It's high safety spec, (special mention given to Honda's award for pedestrian safety) and solid security features galvanised me into the decision. This is a little car, tiny in fact, on the outside. I'm almost five feet tall and I can reach across the roof to wash it! It has curved lines with a little snub nose and the girls and I think that from the front it looks like a little cat. Get inside though...

The new jazz, what a lovely car

Advantages: To many to list, but you can see all of road, get in 1 and you will see what i mean
Disadvantages: at the momment i can not find any (and boy have i looked)

...The wifes peugeot 307 was getting a bit old, and needless to say getting a bit dangerous so started to look around for something for about 12k + the banger. first looked at the focus, well out of price range, then the new fiesta, looked lovely but could only get a tea cup in the back which for a family car is no good, plus anything else you wanted i.e. back disk brakes, were all extras so boosting up the price. So looked on top gear in that range and said I was better of getting a honda jazz, so had a look. I was smitten straight away nearly everything that was extra on the fiesta was standard on the honda plus with the ES version you had i-shift which is either automatic or what they call i-shift manual with or without paddles on the stearing wheel (just like the f1 ferrari) without a clutch. The amount of space in the car is amazing...
