Hello from a new member!
Hi all! I just found this site and thought I'd register. I'm in the process of looking for a replacement for my Mini Cooper - growing family necessitates more doors and bigger boot! I have been looking at a BMW 1 Series, but the Civic seems to offer so much more for the money, plus it looks really cool
 . So it's looking more an more likely that I'll head down the Honda route - watch this space...Cheers, Dave. |

Hi Dave and welcome to the forum.
Another good reason to by a Civic instead of the BMW 1 is that nobody will think that you can't afford a real BMW  |

welcome
dont bother with the 1 series, it will cost you a small fortune and then people will laugh at you for paying a small fortune for a small, crampt, ugly car |

I have got a standard 1.8 EX and, before I bought it, was pricing up a similar specced BMW 118SE and a 318SE (Both 140BHP). The 1 series list price was £24,500 and the 3 series was almost £28k. I paid £16 for the EX including Black paint.

Hi Dave,
I was thinking of BMW too, but its not as spacious and fast as Civic. bmw's service costs are too expensive for me! |

Well I found BMW purchase price to be quaite high but their service costs are VERY cheap.
Just dug out mine for my last car (318iSE): Sept 04 14k £132 July 05 33k £209 Apr 06 45k £155 March 07 63k £220 I expected the costs to have been more |
