Good Points
For the brief time it was going it drove quite well !

Bad Points
THIS VEHICLE DRINKS OIL AND HAS NO OIL LEVEL INDICATOR - NOR WAS ANY WARNING GIVEN AT SALE NOR SERVICING.

In 35 yrs of driving I have never driven a vehicle with such a basic error - no oil level warning system in a car that drinks oil - a recipe for disaster.

General Comments

ex- wife was driving it in march 07 when the engine seized with no warning - i.e THERE IS NO OIL LEVEL INDICATOR ON THIS VEHICLE. we were quoted £10,000 TO FIX IT!

Same thing happened to me in an 06 Civic 2.2 diesel after 9000 miles. Don't seem to hear much but it seems the diesel might be bringing the stable down!
