Picked up my New EX today

emma · 27th April 2007, 20:12

Picked up my new Civic today, absolutely fab. 1.8 EX NHB, with city pack and sunroof. Am so glad I went for the parking sensors, as I do not think it would be too long before I would have bumped it.

Petol cap fine, no bumps or strange sounds from the back. Have driven 70 miles so far and all is well. Still working out what all the knobs do.

Will post pictures in a few days.

The two month wait was worth it......

Hi Emma, I picked up my Red 1.8EX last Wednesday 25 April. Am very pleased - especially with the sat-nav and other goodies. All mod's done [fuel filler cap etc.] and its just fab. Much smoother ride than 1.8ES on a 55 plate which would sometime splutter or jerk on acceleration.If a lesson is learnt here its leave it a bit befre buying a new model!

Welcome Emma. The EX is a fine machine - happy motoring!

Not run it yet then?

Not an order just an understanding.

You will enjoy your Civic.

My civic is now two weeks old, mileage to date is 760 miles. I can honestly say that I love the car more now, than when I did the test drive. I now look at the initial test drive as just an introduction as to what you can expect.

I made mention on previously threads that I was a little concerned buying the car because of the problems other users had experienced, to date no problems, however, I do say this with my fingers crossed.
