Honda FR-V 2.0 Sport

Recently had to sell my FRV because Honda had decided that the European sales of this vehicle were not sufficient to continue producing this vehicle, this is what I was told.

Honda only needed to restyle the rear end of this car,in my opinion to have one of the most versitile MPV in the market. The three seats in the front and the three spacious rear seats make this a tardis of distiction.Given this vehicle is about 3-4 inches wider than most mid sized MPV you are getting what MPVs should be.

The car industry are now trying to tempt familes with the new concept SUVs as alternatives to the MPV. What you get is a four seater as the rear seats accommodate two normal adults and a middle stick insect. Ok they look good and perhaps handle well enough but spacious NO.

My biggest regret is leaving Honda because I dont think Honda listen to their customers anymore rather their marketing people are telling the customers what they should have

I am quite a hard driver and the average petrol consumption attained is 30mpg all round which is not too bad considering size and performance of my Honda FR-V 2.0 Sport car. The gearstick is nicely placed and gear changing is a pleasure. Seating and ride is very comfortable and road holding is very good. The tyres fitted when new are Michellins which tend to be a little noisy, although I have had 19,000 from fronts and the rears are still ok for couple of thousand more. I am quite pleased with the car and would rate it as my best car owned to date.
