Hello everyone! again new member from Finland

I'm getting a Civic 5D 1,8 sport in November and i thought this is the right time to join this great forum.I got mine in Nighthawk black. this car is my fourth Honda and I have loved them all.My first car i bought was -98 2,0l Prelude,then silver
Honda Civic Type R followed by Nighthawk black Type-R The reason why i will sell my Type-R civic is that i travel much and i need more space becouse we have one 7 year old son and one more is coming next year,One thing i have noticed is that speed is not so important to me anymore and it was actually very easy decision to change the car to this new Civic.

When i saw this new Civic i know thats the one i want.Great look,much better quality than older Civics,and how much you're getting for your money.Its goeing to be weard at start not to have Type-R horsepowers but i think I`l do fine.now i have 252 horsepower in my Civic.

Some Finns may know me from www.dynamiitti.com site.

Honda is more like a babe, they look good, they sound good and you could step over your mum just to get one.

So let`s enjoy our great cars and hopefully I`m welcome here.
I have already found plenty of useful advices here.This forum looks to be very nice.

Tervetuloa -Welcome!

November seems like a very long time from now... When did you order it?
I ordered mine in February and it's due next week. Maybe even tomorrow!!

Well, anyway, seems like I managed to lure at least some of you into joining

Morjens!

Good choice .

That's a long wait. I ordered mine last december, six excruciating months of wait. But i can tell you this, it is really worth it

Hi Copycat and pikkumies!

Nice to see Finns here. I ordered mine in 3.5.06 so yes,it`s very long time to wait this fabulous car but I`m 100% sure It`s worth waiting.My dealer (Pitäjänmäen Veho) said it was last Nighthawk black that you could have this year,but they are salemans like I so i don`t trust everything they say.

Copycat:thank for bringing me here.

Heya! Another Finn here. I'm getting my Civic in October.

When did you order yours? The 2007 models are already for sale, and they cost €2000 more than the 2006 model. There are no changes in the model, they just raised the price because it's been selling so well.

I also asked my dealer about getting the rear spoiler for free like they do in the UK
Not going to happen apparently in Finland, because the cars are selling themselves already. Too bad.

Pottsy, you put the Cheshire mob under "Cheshire Chat". What about "Finnish Line" for the Finland mob ?. Good eh?.

Hi folks and welcome Lude!

New Civic's starting to get more common here in Finland, at least in the Helsinki capital area. Last Saturday my eyes catched three brand new shiny ones, not bad!

Lets wave when we see each others

Is it time to change the description of the site to a forum for Finnish owners of the new Civic. As long as our Finnish friends don't become the majority and insist on all posts to be made in the predominant language of the members.

REVOLUTION!

Story of my life...

Oh and tervetuloa vaan!

Where'd you buy yours? I know my dealer is expecting a black one and two Galaxy greys to be delivered soon.


richie:

Would be interesting to see where the Civic is most popular.
Maybe we are second after you guys?
Or would be, if more cars were delivered here.

Hi richierich, no reason to get that worried, we Finns promise to stick to English here with the exception of a few native words every now and then, if you allow it Sir

These people are the reason for your delay:
http://www.assistor.fi/index_fin.php

Give them a call and give them a piece of your mind.

Seriously though how long can it take to check a car for scratches etc. ?
Maybe they also install the options we've ordered but it's not like that would take several days for a professional to do.

Copycat, I think we should also keep in mind that so called lightcare is very important also, not to talk about selfservice which is getting more and common in many areas

"Look, we're suffering from weak resources..." bummer!

Most of their people on holiday no doubt. I'd still want to know why it's taking so long. Oh, well. Next week is just a couple more days away.
