Jim RS Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Must admit I was disappointed by the car having used it for 1 week, in that the engine needed stirring to use at everyday speeds, finish was poor and fuel consumption was terrible. However sounds like the engine really suits the Westies lightweight application, maybe where it should have been in the first place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disagree, I had one for a couple of years back in the day as a daily and i loved it. It sounded like this though so the neighbours not so much.

Never had you down as a serial hairdresser 😉 Russ! How did you rate the handling? Are they as bad as they make out for snapping of line with no chance to catch it and no warning? 33 minutes ago, RussH said: It sounded like this though so the neighbours not so much. It would have sounded much better in a car less than 1/2 the weight ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAFKARM Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 I had an 04 so the first of the facelifts, this was back in the day (2006 I think) before I did any track driving, but it was the car I learnt to drift so it can’t have been that bad. I can’t remember crashing it anyway! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't excuse Honda for not doing it right in the first place... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
