Good Points
Low maintenance costs.
Very long tyre life.
Bad Points
A bit heavy on the petrol when travelling at speeds over 70mph (on foreign motorways).
General Comments
I have had my Honda HR-V VTEC since 2003 from new, and have done nearly 114,000 miles, all over Europe. Outstanding vehicle, very reliable, and if kept serviced regularly needs no additional maintenace. Do not buy the Honda recommended (Yokohama) tyres, as they wander all over the place. Buy Kumho (from Korea). I got 66,000 miles out of the first set I used and have now done 40,00 on the current tyre, with little sign of ware!
