I am VERY unlikely to buy a Honda again.
Is your paintwork so bad? Pity you are not happy about the outcome.

I, myself, discovered a paint/dent problem along the crease line along the leading edge of the passanger door. Looks like there is too much paint applied by the factory or there has been a touch-up to cover a dent/depression. Quite annoying. Does not look good. Probably a waste of time trying to get it attended to. I am sure there will be some sort of smart explaination! Definitely looks like a repair. Will have a go anyway.

Sorted the faulty window rubber myself, even though the body-shop manager at Chiswick Honda promised me he was going to call me last week after I had spoken to him face to face. He also said that he would not be happy to see such a fault if it was his own new car! Still waiting for the call!

Still not happy with the way the doors are attached. Gaps between the door edges with front and rear wings are not the same. In fact, the gaps are nearly twice as great for the front.

At least, the car runs well and there are no rattles, yet. Small mercies!

Must admit, the car is not very well made. Maybe I have got one of the many duff ones. No Japanese customer would accept such faults. Perhaps I should not either.

Will keep you posted.
