Hi
Ive Just ordered a new 2.2 ictdi Ex in Cosmic Grey , I was told there would be a two week wait so I thought I might as well wait till 1st of Sept for a 56 plate , but i'm begining to wish I hadn't.
This is an excellent forum and I'm looking foreward to contributing to it.
I usually cover at least 40k per year so I shall be testing Hondas legendary reliability to the full.

Hi Jimbo and welcome

I currently have an old model civic in Cosmic Grey and it is great for hiding the dirt. Not looking forward to having to wash my black one every week when it gets here, but that's the price you pay I guess.

Anyway, enjoy the forum

Big-Chris, It's worth it though when you have it all cleaned and polished. Don't want to start a whole debate (again) but there really wasn't any other choice for me but black.

When you need to drive over a thousand miles a week , ablack car is going to need a lot of polishing !
I borrowed a pearl black volvo v50 for a day , 2 weeks ago , and after 200 miles it was totally minging , when I picked it up it was covered in scratches even though it was only a month old.

jimbo, welcome to the Forum. The colour really doesn't matter me. I only do average miles, and I don't mind washing it every one/two weeks.
