Hi all,

Hoping to pick up my 2.2 ES Civic diesel (1 year old) on Friday, so excited! I've read through the forum before going for the test drive last night, and checked that all the known issues had been tackled. They had!

It's an ex-display with a few thousand on the clock. They'll service it before giving it to me, and I managed to get £1.5k off the list price. Pretty good going I thought.

I only realised last night that I forgot to haggle for car mats!! Dammit. They are providing rubber ones but... c'mon, I don't wanna ruin the car for that. Will go back to them today but as I've already signed... pah.

He quoted me £60 but I've read that includes fitting, so might just go for the £47 "fit them myself" option.

Really impressed on the test drive although the model I drove had low-profile 19" alloys which were NOISY and the ride was really rough. Thankfully I won't be getting those!

Anyhoo.

Hello.

I'm new.
