The trip computer in the euro is reasonably accurate,
The VE commodore on the other hand... lol hopeless
Varies so much

It's good enough for me to compare my average fuel consumption from tank to tank. As long as its consistent it doesn't matter if it's out by a little bit in the first place.
To bring this thread back on topic, I just traded my 06 Euro Lux for the 08 Accord V6-L and I am suprised how much improvement there is. So I am expecting the same upgrades will be applied to the 09 Euro.

A little bit off topic, but i've read that the new euro vtec crossover has been lowerd to 5,000 rpm rather than 6,000rpm on the current model.
That will help the new euro perfortmance wise, as vtec will active on all high rpm gear changes, or be close to. vtec crossover.
compression has also been bumped up aswell.
That would make me swing to an 08 model. Nearly........ :)
And on topic, I'm not a fan of the 08 euro. But, i need to see it in real life. Interoir looks awesome though!!
Going by these pics, the dash is very similar to the new 08 Accord, which suggests that the technology should be similar or slightly better.Quote:

If anyone is thinking about buying the current Euro, you better hurry because Honda just started runout advertising last friday in the Daily Mirror's Drive section. It is a full page add saying there is limited stock and to HURRY!!!
Also, honda is pushing Jazz pretty hard, so I expect the Jazz runout to start very soon.
u want a great value cheap car get the current euro.
If ur not going to hold on to ur car for more than 3 years get the current euro.
if u can wait, get the new one.
if u want the new shape for the next 5 years get the new one
the reason why people wait for 2nd series or 3rd series of the brand new cars is because of the cosmetic upgrades and whether there are issues they always work on fixing these etc...i personally would wait another 1-2 years before getting the new euro if that was the case.
However the current euro is fantastic and i wont be changing for a while.
