New Jazz S owner (in waiting!)

Hi Everyone
I have signed up for a new jazz Vibe s last week end (from Larke Hoskins Roseberry) and now am waiting for the car to turn up - I expect it in May 2012!! At present driving a leased car and now looking forward to owning my own car. I love the Jazz because it is so well made, beautifully finished and economical - I also love the way all Honda's are engineered - rock solid and at the same time they run like a good swiss watch.
I have owned 4 MX5's, a Honda Civic, a Honda Prelude, and a Mercedes C220 CD - it will be good fun going back to a free revving petrol car after driving a turbo diesel - but I am sure I will miss the huge torque of the turbo diesel (400 NM!!). Of all the cars I probably miss my MX5 NC the most. However now on to a totally different driving experience with the Jazz Vibe S :cool:and really looking forward to it!!:):)

Looking forward to driving a great little car that will be all mine!!

@ouch
so the vibe is equivalent to the GLi
and Vibe S is equivalent to the VTiS
in our terms haha

Yep.
The only reason I ordered a Vibe S was for the 1.5Ltr and 16" rims. I didn't want a body kit as they always get damaged eventually. I would have preferred a Vibe with 1.5 and bigger rims but no such beast unfortunatly and it wasn't that much more than a Vibe (2.2K).

same reason why my dad went VTi instead of VTiS he didnt see the value of paying another 2k for some plastic lip. right now i wish he did so that when he passed it down i wouldnt have to source the bits LOL
