My Swindon built 2002 EP3 was well built and didn't sqeak or rattle. I know some of the early cars did, but mine was solid for nearly 60k miles.

I've got a 2001 early EP3 with 113k miles on it, I've had literally no rattles or squeaks, and it's no garage queen. Don't understand where the shoddily built reputation comes from at all? Had it MOT'd yesterday and the tester was very impressed with its condition for it's age and mileage.

FN2... Forums full of complaints. Sounds like the EP3 was much better built. Hopefully Honda will have taken notice..... Hopefully. However with all the annoying niggles and appalling customer service I would try another one as the engine is so addictive,
though not with 4 exhausts and a ridiculus rear wing, it's too much when hot hatch styling is getting more subtle. I'd like to know what age group it is aimed at.

Yes it was!

They're.... an abbreviation of they are. The smilie face an attempt at sarcasm, unfortunately taken the wrong way like my car comments. I digress (sorry bigkeeko), if grammar is your thing rather than opinions about vehicles you would both be better suited to a website such as thespellingblog.blogspot.com

So 'BadgeR' photography took this pro shot?

They committed the cardinal sin and managed to forget about their reflection in the door glass. Not a great advert is it?

At the last count it was just one assumption and that's a fair one with it having a copyright footer cool
