I have my Honda Civic Sport for three years now and want to keep it for as long as i practically can. Always thought it was a brilliant car which handles brilliantly through corners, with such great feel for grip.

The biggest disappointment was the gear box which i had to have refurbished with new bearings. This cost me £1200, which i feel is outrageous due to the age (4 years old). I feel a bit harsh writing anything bad in amoungst all this praise. I do feel it is a great car that i have enjoyed driving ever since i have had it.

This gear box bearing issue is apparently common with the Civic which is a real shame. I feel the way the fantastic engine revs encourages you to work the gear box, which may not be quite up to it. I do drive it much more carefully on the gear box these days.
