This looks like a 2016 brochure - check it out for features in each spec level...

It looks like SR is the top spec. The face lift was also available in 2015 so you might also want to find that brochure.

 

The top was the EX with the SR below. As for DASP mine is a 2016 build and it was fitted as standard. I believe Honda included on the later/last SR's and EX's? as a bonus (vice request) inorder to shift em in preparation for arrival of the Mk10's. You'll need a 2017 registered Mk9 or late 2016 if you want DASP. I'm not sure about late 2015 or early build 2016 models.

Note towards mid 2016 the SR did become the top model as they stopped production of the EX so check if you find one that it had DASP. You can tell the EX with its headlamps like a Type-R, it also has keyless start and entry.

I recently upgraded from a SE+ to July17 registered SR, dealer told me the SR was top model by then, but don't know when it was actually manufactured. Really liking the differences, most of DASP is really useful and worth having. The only bit I switch off (it's the only bit you can I think) is the Lane Departure Warning as I'm not in the habit of indicating left to come back to the inner lanes on motorway - often switch it on when on motorway if I'm feeling a bit tired.

In my opinion, the leather seats are much better than the seats on SE+ and they have electric lumbar and side squab adjustment. I find the auto-dimming rear view mirror really good to, plus glass roof makes a big difference to interior on dull days.

Good luck with future purchase

 

Mk9's were stopped being built in July 2016. So it's at least that old.

Wow, I didn't realise it was that long ago, I thought they continued to make a few diesels for a while later due to the late launch of the 10g diesel.

 

Thanks for the Input so far. This is really confusing though.

I could be wrong but from what I can see it was possible to buy either a facelift SR or EX Plus early on in the facelift life where the EX Plus added Led headlights and Smart/Keyless entry/start amongst others over the SR. It doess appear that by 2016 the EX Plus had been dropped and the SR replaced it as top spec but according to the brochure above it didnt have the extra features that the EX Plus previously had in months gone by. That seems really poor and a backwards step from Honda if so ?

I also cant figure out if an early facelift EX Plus would have had DASP and where this comes into the equation with facelift cars.

I basically want the highest spec facelift 9G out there with the DASP pack but maybe it doesnt exist and Honda messed around so much in the run up to the 10G launch that all the facelift cars are abit of a frankenstein mix of specs and features where its not making sense at all and im going to have to pick between one thing or another.

When did DASP and/or DASP features come into play ?

As i said this is really confusing. I could do with looking at all the brochures Honda produced during the 9G facelift run but I cant even find them online apart from the one above kindly posted grrrr.

Maybe im just thick and cant figure this out but this has got me really stumped where I think ive got it sorted in my head and then something I see on a car/review/advert/brochure or something told me has me scratching my head.

Really appreciating the pointers thanks.

Cheers.

 

Hmm, You could still place new orders (At least, the configurator was open) in March 2017, though I believe they had trimmed off the less popular trim levels by then

 

The only facelift brochure I have is dated 03/15.

That includes Honda Connect and DASP.

The models in it are:

S (although I was told by a dealer that the S wasn't available to order)
SE Plus
Sport
SR
EX Plus

 

Being nosy on carwow a new zero mileage MK9 SR diesel (black) popped up. Birmingham area I think.

I think someone posted the same 'find' a week ago

 

I have a March 2015 SR diesel Tourer. It is a facelift but an early one as it is only EU5 compliant

I have standard halogen headlights which don't have anything clever about them (although perfectly adequate). The top spec EX did have LED headlights as I remember discussing with the salesman the different levels of trim and came to the conclusion that the SR was fine for my needs

So it looks like you'll need a later car than mine
