Hello From Germany

wolverine · 14th January 2007, 22:39

Hello Civinfo, finally found somewhere to get info/updates regading my 2mth old Civic! Pretty new to forums and stuff, so any advice would be helpful!

czechplastik · 14th January 2007, 22:44

Hey Wolverine! Very welcome here! Anything you need to know, just ask!

allan40alt · 14th January 2007, 22:50

Looks like you have made an excellent colour choice, wolverine. Welcome to the forum.

Oh yes. Black Pearl, Nighthawk Black, Dark Black, Black with a hint of Black!

Seriously, I also like Milano Red, Vivid Blue and Alabaster Silver. I'm going to have a very difficult time choosing my next Civic.

Nothing at all, love it; but you have to think ahead....

Ps: Alabaster Silver is the one colour that I think the standard velour seats really suits. The black with silver sides looks ace. Probably tops my list of 'other colours'.

Hallo nach Guetersloh... Gruesse aus dem sonnigen Bayern...

Viel Spass im Forum

Hallo, Grüss von Frankreich...

More and more germans are coming yet ! Good thing.
You are in the best forum about civic, plenty of info etc...

Question : What the image of an Honda driver in Germany ?
I've heard that in the UK Honda are "Old People car"
Here in france Honda has more or less the same image that Bmw had in the seventieth... Good quality, Safety and very good Engines but poor design (compair to the Italian cars or others...) but things are changing now with the new civic.

Have a nice day

Servus

well good question, I don't know to be honest

When I still lived in the UK driving my motorbike most of the time "us bikers" hated all Volvo drivers

.
Mind you our second car is a Volvo

, but I did not drive it very long in the UK

. I think the boys would have killed me ..LOL..

But generally speaking I think Honda itself has a very good reputation over here, for being reliable etc.

"MADE IN GERMANY" is no longer made in Germany, look VW is building the Beetle in Mexico etc., some German papers ripping VW, Mercedes,BMW and so on apart for being expensive, un-reliable and so on.

Germany isn't what Germany used to be like anymore

Auf Wiedersehen

wolverine · 21st January 2007, 11:09

Civic Babe, thats a yes, some are here, and yes, I am serving! I imagine the german community have a very bad perception of the soldiers living here, they can be very badly behaved sometimes!

Look no worries, I used to live in a town called Soest, at that time there were loads ( in Neuengeseke, Moehnesee and Werl), british Soldiers based. and the german community lived very well of them

(taxis, pubs etc.)
Yes and of course they behaved badly

, but thats how I meet my hubby of almost 18 years now.
