why dont you go for a CRZ they are pretty cool and there are a few owners on here that have gone from a civic and seem to like them
Cr-z mate or got for the face lifted insight as that now emits 96 grams of CO2 per kilometer
i need 5 door and cr-z is very expensive really
i found one at newton honda croydon for 9.450 paund blue 18.000 miles looks ok not as good as my car still :(
they are very slow, they do not get great mpgs as you would expect.. but as an actual car i really liked mine!
standard stereo was alright cruise control, heated seats etc...! had no issues with mine for just under a year before i swapped out for the diesel
You'll need a 2012 MY Insight as its the only Honda hybrid below the 100 g/km c02 limit. A Civic Hybrid, Jazz Hybrid or earlier Insight WILL NOT get you congestion charge immunity.

well civic hybrid s are listed on tfl web page as free from congestion charge and mate of mine own s one all he pays is 10 paunds every year even though they have 109 gram c02 i will sent the link once i get back home
I had thought of changing to a Lexus ct200.

However I have long term worries about the reliability of the batteries especially if you don't keep the "electrons flowing" everyday.

Most certainly at the moment they didn't get a good resale value from the trade (Mind you neither does an 08 CIVIC :( )
