The Wife would kill me if I got one of these....
But so much want.
A SRT8 estate in black would be just right.

Hello Pesty  Will do mate - picking it up next week after the tints and registration transfer has been completed I really do like the 300 and maybe when I next change in 2 or 3 years time I'll be looking for one but the Honda ticks all the boxes at the moment and wasn't a fortune to change & it's big in the back too

This is the model with the slightly stiffer lower suspension and all the skirts and diffusers etc and the ride is very good but not roley poley around corners. It feels like it's on rails; I'll have to check whether this is a 4WS model (does anyone know)?

Pesty said: Nice Cheers Looks a bit sinister in graphite with gunmetal alloys and the lower stance with the bodykit and the dark tinted windows   I saw a regular one earlier without these bits and it looked quite different

There is a lot of class with Accord estates.

I've owned and liked the Legacy but I have to say that the build quality of the Honda does feel better and certainly up there with the Germans.

Sump said: You would say that though. In fairness, I once dismantled a 1986 Toyota Corolla and was blown away by the care they took in designing simple things like screws and screw plugs. The fuse and relay boxes were well constructed and well thought out. The car was a testament to great design and thought let down only by cheap plastics and the fact the car is built to a price. Way, way better put together than my 1996 Golf GTI.
