I took an Advance for a test drive, loved it , and bought one. Your review is spot-on and I agree with everything you said about the car. It's worth every penny. Many thanks!
Thanks for sharing! 😎
I've had my Civic in sport trim for 13 months now and I love it. Excellent fuel economy and great fun on a twisty road.
I have this car in the same colour. I must say, it’s very, very good.
It really is an awesome car! 😎
A very detailed and informative review. Thank you.
This is an amazing car with great handling (as you would expect from Honda), fantastic fuel economy and an excellent build quality. I swapped my Skoda Octavia Vrs for the Advance model in Sonic Grey and I have not been disappointed. I have never bought a Honda before and I suspect I will one of many “conquest” purchases. Keep up the excellent independent reviews. It is always good to see a review which is not just a sponsored advert!!
Glad you enjoyed it Graham, lots more Men & Motors content in the works.
I am literally in the same boat. About to part ex my 2014 occy tdi estate. Im hoping this is as good as tbe reviews say..... Sporty, practical, economical, family car thats great to drive! You enjoyed it in comparison?
It is a nice and great presentation or talk from the person well explaining the features of the car in a very nice and quiet way I really appreciated him 👍
Glad you liked it!
Super Review, brief an to the point. Being HONDA BIAS, since 2005, obviously I can only agree with your comments....I must, however, add the following for those Motorists out there that are still uncertain about which vehicle manufacturer to head for.
Since my 2005 Honda Accord, 3 x CR-V, Jazz, CIVIC 10th Series, now a Hybrid CR-V, I have NEVER experienced one issue or problems, NOT ONE. my Wife has a simply Stunning 2010 Honda CR-Z hybrid, (Manual 6 Speed), Sport...again NOT ONE issue of concern, added to which the mileage figures are around 44mpg...(I get 42/46 mpg from my CR-V Hybrid)...so I am more than certain the figures quoted of 50mpg + for the NEW CIVIC are going to be correct.
Granted...HONDA VEHICLES are a little more expensive to purchase, initially, but when you weigh this up with continuous TROUBLE FREE, comfortable Motoring to "Sums" even out very quickly. Enjoy...G.A.R.
The hybrid used in the this civic is completely different to the CRV hybrid
@@SimonPrew Cheers Simon...the CR-V Hybrid Transmission/Transfer system is actually identical to that of the 11th Gen CIVIC...,you may have misinterpreted the CR-Z which, correctly, is a "World away" from the 2021 onwards systems, which now include the JAZZ, HR-V, with the 1.5 litre Atkinson engine.. the new ZR-V has the 2.0 litre. G
I have the sport version very nice to drive
Nice review. love the panoramic roof.. and also the colour!!
Thanks Jimmy 👍
Subscibed with all notifications - because Jim is on board and I really value his oplnions and knowledge.
Welcome Jim
🤟
Cheers Shaun, you could bring a tear to a glass eye 😢👍
Great video! 👏👏👏
I own a Sport FL4 and totally agree with you. And mine has that wonderful blue colour. Love it
Stay Tuned for the Type R review coming soon! 😎
@@Menandmotors can't wait
Good review Jim, thanks for understanding the transmission and how it works, it was a good explanation .
Glad you found it helpful! Stay Tuned for more!
Thanks
Nice one Jim, love that colour. Can't wait to see the type r
Lovely thing
Bought the base Elegance model in blue metallic for £29500 with 5 years free servicing. Main reason was for the 17" wheels which gives the car a great ride and lower road noise than the 18" demonstrator I tried. The Elegance is still very well equipped and I didn't think the few extras on the sport such as 1/2 leather seats was worth it and the only reason for getting the top Advance model is the pano sunroof and leather seats that I think are not genuine leather. Apparently this now retails for £40,000 if you spec with metallic paint ! It has taken 9months for the car but worth the wait. Unfortunately the Elegance is not currently available to order and its not on the configurator.
The car is brilliant in all the ways you pointed out in your video.
Hi, I bought the sport version but never tried the elegance as this is not for testing. I'm thinking to buy the 17 inch alloys from Elegance as winter wheels and if they are better than the 18 I'll keep the 17 for the entire year. Since I did not had the chance to go with Elegance...is it true that the road noise is less present in the cabin with the 17 inch wheels? thank you in advance! Cheers
@@alexandrulujanschi5192 . I'm going from memory from trying the sport about 9 months ago, so hardly a side by side comparison but I would definitely say that the ride is more comfortable and road noise is lower on the 17" wheels. However another variable is the tyres were Michelin Pilot Sport 4 on the Sport and Michelin Primacy on the Elegance. It might be down to the tyre type as I do find Pilot sports can be a bit noisy on other cars I've driven.
@@wildcat1065 Thank you
@@alexandrulujanschi5192 Did you buy the 17 inch wheels? If yes, how is the experience? Thank you!
@@user-yj9nr1nu5d hi, yes I did, it's amazingly better than the 18 wheels, I'll keep the 17 for summer also. It's clear that 17 are for comfort and 18 for grip and sport senzations (if you can live with them).
Exactly the car i am getting at the end of the month, Jim. Currently own a FK8, but when my dealer asked me to test drive the EHEV i was very impressed. Not only did it have some punch, but the handling was very impressive taking corners with no body roll and no understeer. Also the Advance comes with a nice 12 speaker Bose and panoramic roof plus other goodies. The 0-60 has been timed at under 7 secs which is pretty impressive. Icing on the cake, mpg 55-65.
Glad you liked the review! Hope you have a blast in the Civic! 😎
@@Menandmotors 👍
I bought one yesterday, and on the test drive I asked the salesman about the 0 to 60 time as it felt much faster than the published figure, he just looked at me and winked, which says it all.
@@pillred5974 Had mine since September last year. Acceleration is good carwow did a 0-60 in 6.7. Enjoy the car.
Had mine since September last year in blue, got the advance trim. Great car and good handling, carwow did a 0-60 in 6.7 not to bad at all. Enjoy your car.@@pillred5974
Looks a great car Jim. Ive ran Hondas for the lasy 15 year's and i can honestly say they are the best cars I've ever owned. Just switched to Toyota because Honda stopped manufacturing in the UK. Its just a me thing that i like to support companies that actually manufacture in the UK.
👍
A nice gesture, but in this case, quite a substantial sacrifice to make.
We've had the civic hybrid sport in crystal blue metallic since the end of June and its a brilliant car. Economy and performance very surprising. As others have said the prices have increased already!
Got to Love a Civic!
Thanks Jim. I'm glad Honda are keeping up with the pricier opposition 😍🤩
I do love that colour too...I even have to acknowledge the blue is better than what a red might be...but only on this occasion 😉
We do love a red Civic! 😍
Great gig Jim. Take it easy !!!!!
Glad you enjoyed the video! 🙂 remember to stay tuned for more!
Always 👍👍
I've had mine for a good few months and it's absolutely brilliant, fortunately I got mine back when the list price was £36,920 all in with the premium blue colour 😂
Great colour
@@DefinitelyNotAGuru To be honest I hadn't seen the blue in the flesh until it got delivered, it needs to be seen to be fully appricated for how good of a blue it is easily the best option colour wise
@@TheRealEmile 100%
I have a new crv hybrid with set up as the Civic can you stop the car leave it in drive or reverse and just switch off the power button mine seems to put it into park when you do this am I doing something wrong. This was the system I used in my Peugeot 3008 when shutting the engine off
Can't wait til it hits the US shores. Currently in an Acura TSX that I love. Great to see bold color on cars.
Totally agree with everything said but wish Honda hadn't increased the price recently... By the way I think it's synthetic leather - which is usually better than real hide....
The blue is very nice and best appreciated on real life..
Contact patches on the seat and dorsal cushions seem to be real leather.
What’s the ground clearance on this car like? Seems a little too low. Can it mount the kerb when parking in marked bays. And what about high speed bumps? Do you need to drive carefully, especially when the car is fully loaded?
I've owned mine for 8 months now. Yes, it's quite low and I've scraped the tarmac a handful of times when entering/exiting steep driveways. The suspension is fantastic, especially at speed. Really well engineered. Brilliant around corners, too. The low ground clearance is an occasional minor annoyance for me. Other than that it's a seriously excellent car. I even managed to transport a new 65 inch tv in the back with the rear seats down. Simply cannot do that in a Mazda3 or Audi A3.
It’s reasonably low but fine over the speed bumps I encountered
Same engine set up as the 10 year old Vauxhall Ampera; they really were ahead of their time
Here we go
👍
One of the best none performance cars on the market today. Shame about the price. Its 41k new which is eye watering for a civic, and still 35k with a few miles on it in advanced. Which is more than it was new at release! Its gone up 5k
Honda slashed the production numbers in half by closing the Swindon plant and not upgrading the capacity in the other plants.
👏👏👏
👍
It seems that all car testers have to wave the left hand around and stare at the camera. Not really keeping safe and a driving test fail. A good commentary though 9/10
⏰
Lovely car but price is way off mark
It's in line with the Corolla or the Golf.
@@DBGE001 not in the UK mate
@@dehvhow much in uk
@@elliomboty7344 starts at little under £35 grand where as golf starts £27 grand
Great car bang on
Modern Men and Motors?!?! i must be taking crazy pills!
There's more to come over the next few months! Stay Tuned! 😎
I got into one and I didn't like the materials and especially the seats.
It's so hard to make good seats, because you always have to sit in them... And a fine armrest, for example, as if you have stones in your elbow on a long drive.... 😮pfff
Strange as I sold my jag and haven't missed its comfort and trust me it was a top of the line jag.
£40k for a civic. Pass
