Hi All

I'm about to become a Civic 2.2 SE owner

It was on my company car list (my 1st company car)

The list was

Audi A3 1.9 TDi

Ford Focus 1.8 TDi Zetec Climate

Honda Civic 2.2 SE

Volvo V50

VW Golf Match 1.9 TDi

So i have to let them know tomorrow and i have obviously chosen the Civic or i would not be here.

Apparently the lease hire company have them in stock so i should have it before the end of the week.

I would like the Galaxy Grey or Blueish Silver

I can't wait

Welcome to civinfo M1KE.

Let us know what you think when you get it.

Think you made the best choice.
You will LOVE the engine.
For a first company car cannot be bad.
Plenty to read and look at on here.
Hope the job goes as well as the car...

Next week hopefully, they said that lest week, but it must be getting closer.

Welcome M1ke.

M1KE · 20th February 2008, 22:00

My spaceship will be landing at work on Wed 27th

So this time next week i will have it.

I still can't wait i'm like a kid at christmas.

Deborah · 22nd February 2008, 13:22

Good choice - I nearly went with the Golf Match but I'm sooooo glad I didn't.

My car's on lease and I knew it was sat at the dealers somewhere in Leicester but had to be patient and wait for the lease co. to do their livery rubbish.......but it did come eventually

Nice colour choice but the grey's better lol

M1KE · 22nd February 2008, 21:16

Hi Debera

I did ask for a Galaxy Grey one, but they had none in stock so i had to go with my second choice of Alabaster Silver.

I really do hope i love it on the down side i only have it for two years.

I just hope that the civic will still be on the list for 2009.

Roll on Wednesday.

M1KE · 28th February 2008, 20:47

It's here.

My Civic has finally arrived, i picked it up from work today a 7pm as had been.

First impressions, well I'm still grinning

I will have a proper look and drive tomorrow.

I will take some pics and post them soon.

Congratulations M1KE a great choice of colour, I'm sure the grinning will last

Charles_Harding · 29th February 2008, 15:04

Glad it has arrived safely.

Keep it clean.

That colour needs the shine to show it off to it's full potential.

......Didn't Charlie behave himself then, that surprised a few of you I bet!

Thanks! The wheels are actually 17" Accord wheels (as in sig) and came with the car - I bought it as an ex demo.

Got to take some more shots of mine - just got a new camera (Nikon D40X SLR) so want to try it out...

I am looking forward to seeing some more arty shots of the Civic, after seeing the pic you posted here
