im getting a new 1.8 ex with:
leather
glass roof
mettallic paint
storms
and im transfering my matts and chrome gearstick, and will havea ful ltank and road tax etc

im trading in my 1.4 se with parking sensors, mettalic paint, alloys, supagaurd, fog lights, and some chrome accessories.

cost to purchas 6900

origionall i was quoted onlt 10500 for my old one, the orgional dealer wet up to the equivalent of 12000.

then i went to another local dealer, who said 19015 would not include parking sensors, so we said for a 6500 change over we will do a deal.
i looked the next day and saw 19000 does include parking sensors, and my dad had a bit of a moan they didnt want to refund us so we could go to the brilliant john pease, and in the end with some stern words we were given a 6100 change over before alloys, which were 800 (50 pound discount is their cost price???????? i doubt it

)

in between this i also found out the parking sensors on my 1.4 arnt official honda, so ive had a bit of a rough experience, ive pbeen offerd a free service so far but i am aiming for the honda happiness package seeing as my origional car sufferd from:
scratched dash
fuel capx2
loose front bumperx2
shock absorbers
radio
unclean and silicone on paint when picked up
plus im sure theres more

anyway i would be interested or appreciate any comments.

it comes in march how fun

sco77harris · 13th February 2007, 10:06

i cant believe that there is no discount on the wheels, i thought there would be but no one else has had it either

Even with all its lurgies I'll still choose the Civic above all others.

Just wouldn't want to be seen in a Ford!
