Honda Civic 1.8 in the test: Lohnendes bargains?


Even though the Honda Civic still by no means obsolete, he must give way his successor in the autumn. The test is defined, whether it is a worthwhile bargain.

The continuous front light band from the early days of the Honda Civic was defused by black radiator Panel, but the wedge-shaped front and the glass dome at the rear with trailing edge even after five years of construction work still very futuristic.
The same applies for the effect heischende cockpit of the Honda Civic. However, the question of why you have to press the red button despite key rotation so that the 1, 8-litre petrol engine Honda Civic 1.8 to life awakens arises every time the engine starts.
The 140 HP strong engine of the Honda Civic has trouble, to respond to the dynamic requirements. In classic Honda fashion, it requires high speed operation, only about 3,500 rpm the Honda Civic developed bite fairly, without to set special joy of turning on the day.
The often necessary gear change with the smooth six gear, however, give pleasure, also steering and chassis of the Honda Civic type hardly cause for the complaint to rapid pace over curvy roads. You may well lead to the construction market, because despite Coupe-like form the confusing body of Honda Civic provides a large luggage room, but at the expense of space constraints for the rear passengers.
Not just cheap 22,850 EUR

Because the model change is made in the fall, good opportunities for a bargain - especially since the question is whether the successor to the Honda Civic entering more powerful.
