Review Comments

Introduction

I bought as a used car from Capital Honda, meenambakkam. It was a flood hit (2015 flood Chennai) car, and because my friend was working at service. We bought the car for 2.5 lakh and fixed the car spending 70k over it for parts. I service the car at my friend's shed and Honda's parts are expensive for sure.


Engine Cover & Engine Interior

There is a engine cover from below and there is 2 such plastic cover, and I was quoted around 8000 for it because its not a plastic material but a higher quality one, hence I haven't replaced that under cover. The engine is a gem but the interior plastic are all trash, they rattle and they rattle hard. The plastic cover on the A pillar will come out every 1000kms and I'll hit it hard to keep it in place, same is The rubber mounting on the driver side door. It'll literally come out and I'll have to put it in place with few hammering hits. Replaced engine and gearbox oil at 50k service and the engine is so silent that i mistake sometime that the car got switched off.


Accelerator

The initial pull at the 1st gear is worse and you'll have to stand on accelerator to literally move the vehicle but I drove from Chennai to Kumbakonam and did a 375kms drive at 65-75kmph and at one time the MID read 23.5kmpl.


Engine & Interior

The engine is just one amazing piece that stands out from the rest of the car. The space on the inside is so addictive that my wife feels claustrophobic in any car she sits now and complains me of the space. The A/C takes its own time to get cooled and in Summer it feels better with windows down owing to the large glass area. I'll be keeping the car for another 3 years before something else changes my mind. 


Thanks for the opportunity Volk-lub. I Just realized, I Don't have any pics of the car.
