Price Civic Price increase

karlak · 4th September 2006, 15:21

Just got hold of a September Price list, and it would appear that the Civic List prices have increased around £200 across the range.

Trekker308 · 4th September 2006, 15:49

I wonder what happens to those folk with cars already on order?? It's of no help to them, or future prospective buyers, but I'm damned glad I purchased mine when I did!

Newboy · 4th September 2006, 15:52

I posted this in another thread, £200 odd for EX and £300 odd for ES. Strange there is a difference where I'm not aware of any spec changes.

sco77harris · 4th September 2006, 17:04

what about se? i like privce rises now i have my car because it means its worth a little it more lol

basegreen · 4th September 2006, 17:06

Note this is the second minor price rise since start of sale.

richierich · 4th September 2006, 17:26

It might just be the cost of metal on the world markets causing the price to rise, the company where I work manufacture mostly in 316L Stainless Steel, we have had it increase our prices this year on 3 occasions to keep up with the market price of steel to avoid losing money on it.

sco77harris · 4th September 2006, 19:03

thats 600 pounds in under a year - a bit steep in my oppinion but good for us who already own

I think if you have argeed an order and paid a deposit / signed the contract, then they have to honour the price agreed as printed on that contract/invoice.

Martin · 4th September 2006, 19:49

FYi, any orders before midnight 31/08/2006, the prices are remaining the same.

The civic sport has got fogs and leather wheel as standard for the 2007 model, which accounts for £100 extra

Telboy · 4th September 2006, 20:14

First dealer i went to 2 weeks ago tried to charge me the new price when he relised i had done my homework on prices etc. Needless to say they didnt get the order. went to another dealer next day and got the deal i wanted.

Martin, just to confirm, when does MY 2007 actually start?

I know that on Audis you normally get next years spec on cars built from about August - something similar with Honda?

elfa7 · 5th September 2006, 13:56

Perhaps they've put the price up, so purchasers can have a discount, and Hondas profit is unaffected . Or am I a cynic. Answers on a postcard.

Velocity · 5th September 2006, 14:22

Or the Civic is selling so well that they have increased the price to maximise profit further

jayt43 · 5th September 2006, 14:23

Yes, it would be good to find out when the 2007 model year build starts, just in case they tweak any of the ECU mappings etc for next year's cars.

My car is going to be delivered at the start of October (just like those for our Finnish/Other European friends) so I don't know if that will be a 2006 build or 2007?

elfa7 · 5th September 2006, 14:32

Your probably right.

Dealer told me October delivery cars will be 2007 build, so hopefully some improvements for your car.

Martin · 5th September 2006, 22:23

TT,

You can order the cars now, though most seem to be for delivery really late on in the year, ordered one today, delivery to the dealership 31/11/2006

Saying that, Honda seem to be changing production if there are a bundle of orders

TTDegs · 6th September 2006, 00:45

cheers Martin - guess that makes sense from Honda point of view, and good news if your spec ends up being bundled

or bad news if you are the one bumped backwards

ta very!
