Thanks Scott

That would be a pretty good price for one over here! The UK version of the
sport (1.4 DSI) automatic is just under £13000. Still good for the money
though. My VW owning friend is amazed by the magic seats*, the fuel
economy, the fact that the only reason I've been to the dealer is to get the
alloys refurbished... Oh and to have a drool over the new Civic!! (European
hatchback appears very different from US Civic)

* I ride bikes a lot, magic seats are so useful for transport.

Re: Yet another car that whoops the Honda Fit's ass
 
Yes, the seats are the wonder of the car. And
it drives so well for small economy car. I also bike quite a bit, I have a
road bike that i ride on week ends. It is odd but the Civic Si that we get
here even though different from yours is made in the UK. I have looked at
the european version on the net and I wish we had it here.

Scott

Maybe now that VW is renaming the Gold to the Rabbit in the US they will
reopen the Pennsylvania assembly plant which built so many forgettable
cars in the 70s and 80s.

Competition for the Fit, I think not!
