Never had a Honda before .. hope it's good?

[Robjh]

Hi Guys

Just bought a new 2012 Civic Sport in Dyno Blue .. pick it up next week .. can't wait!

As the title says, this will be my first ever Honda so I hope it all works out, hopefully all the rumors of reliability and quality is all true? .. fingers crossed.

Got to sell my Fiesta XR4 now, which has been a great car but replacing it with the Civic because I wanted something with an auto transmission for the day to day commute to work.

Look forward to reading up on everything Honda on the forum .. :thumbsup:

Rob.

A honda will last u a lifetime as long as u look after it.

Are there any plans lined up for the car?

Agree with Bludger on most parts, although i still think they still produce some very cheap to run and reliable whitegood cars

^^ this man speaks his truth. The reality is the market no longer want cars from the 90's, which are inefficient as we sit in traffic jams and pay high fuel costs, which are without mandated safety equipment, ... which are today 2012 generally primitive. If that's glory I'll take comfortable, safer, advanced obscurity.

Rob, welcome and enjoy your wretched new Civic. :)

Well that's the difference between you and me, I understand that opinions are beliefs and are therefore neither valid or invalid.

I do enjoy combating negativism though i.e. "modern Honda's not as good as..." blah

Thanks for the welcome guys ... (and the light entertainment of course) .. :)

Wow! .. that's uncanny ..you must be an XR4 forum member as well ? .. LOL

Yes indeed, they do fight over such things .. and many others (believe me!~)

[curtis265]

Welcome and enjoy your stay...

Forums is full of clowns who think they're better that the rest of us...

If you post something that doesn't align/suit their "superior" order of thought they'll gang up on you like flies on a pile shit...

Funny how it's called a forum where people come for help and advice anyone and everyone should entitled their own opinions.. Yet these clowns will try cut you down at first signed of an n00b questions and say useless stuff like "have you ever heard or the search button or google"

I still believe however, that it's unwise to promote unsafe practice. Of course they're going to get beaten down. What if i told you that you could jack up a car with scissor jacks and safely work under it? It'll work 99% of the time so it'll be fine!

just sayin.


I also think you're just bitter at the fact that you got neg rep because you stuck by that bad advice so badly. I suppose it is to a degree about one opinion being better than the other... but someone's going to get very badly hurt.

Mate knock it off, I've already hilighted the dangers around the procedure and to use at own risk.

There's risk associated with everything, weather one decides to take the risk is based on their own judgement,

It like saying you should never work on a car during the day as you may be at risk of getting skin cancer...

sounds like a backward example. the example you gave above is for the good of person youre advising.
your other advice removing springs without spring compressor is not for the good of person youre advising, instead its dangerous.
that advice was only to proof that it can be done, but why risk your health for lowering springs? not worth it.
good thing you have creativity, other might not and get injured instead.

probably like saying yeah you can ejaculate depressingly by raping bitches, put a disclaimer of jail/hell time and say it can be done
true, but does that mean you condone rape? of course you will get flamed for recommending something inappropriate
even though proven it can be done and you didnt get caught.
