Thinking of buying a civic?......Don't

EDDIE2 · 26th March 2008, 20:48

I have only had my civic for 3 mths but I can take no more of it's shoddy workmanship and lack of general usefulness.
I rejoice that I am geting rid of it for a much more superior car.

Welcome back my beloved Golf.

To all of those still stuck with their sad excuses for a car i say farwell........or should that be auf wiedersehen.

angie4m · 26th March 2008, 20:54

Oh well its not everyone's choice but I'm MORE than satisfied with mines as are others.

Much better than the boring, ugly Golf with less space too!

mrh339 · 26th March 2008, 20:57

Eddie I hope you enjoy life in your dull panzer wagon as much as I love my civic.

NEEMSTAR · 26th March 2008, 21:00

Call your own Civic a 'sad excuse' by all means.

There have been a few here and there. TC ?

Like ANY car.

Lets hope your new Golf is as far away from a 'sad excuse of a car' as those owned by a large majority of Civic owners.

Enjoy your new car and I hope you don't get stuck with another 'sad excuse' because Golf, Civic, whatever, it CAN happen, it is life.

Eddie, sorry you didn't enjoy your Civic, although I think 3 months is not long enough in terms of a change of marques. I hope that you have a better experience back in your run of the mill golf.

Personally I am more than happy with my Civic!

NEEMSTAR · 26th March 2008, 21:16

... this thread should be recycled . its soooo boring

-=Stella Artois=- · 26th March 2008, 21:43

I couldn't go to a golf, I'd be asleep 5 minutes after I'd left the house. Having read none of your posts i'm guessing. Post 1 Hi I'm new, gettting a civic..... post 2 thanks for all the replies people. posts 3 - 6 throw in a couple of smilies and the odd, "that looks nice", post 7 civics are crap.... bye. Not much of a loss.

angie4m · 26th March 2008, 21:50

Actually his first post was asking to be counted for the flip key then second post the Golf crap started, He even told one boy who posted pics of his FN2 it would look better as a Golf!

Good riddance to him
