Only a Honda I know, but this looks good I reckon..

PH has been at Geneva and of course they are reporting on the cars we all want to know about.

We all understand that in the real world, a diesel hatch returning 60mpg is what people will buy.

But they have ignored a car , showcased in Geneva, which I think looks great and is set to be approximately 1000% more interesting than a Golf..







Why would anyone pick a Golf over this? Its likely to be a lot more reliable than a Golf, too..

Looks like a poor mans Mercedes R-class

Huh?

You need glasses.

Apart from the fact that the Honda is about 30% smaller, 50% cheaper and 100% more fuel efficient..

It's got the wrong badge.

I mean can you IMAGINE parking that Honda outside (insert some random really posh place here)?! The horror! THE HORROR!!



FWIW, I like the look of it.

[GrumpyTwig]

Looks better than the hatchback civic thats for sure.

[SrMoreno]

Looks quite smart, but Honda's pricing was well off the mark last time I looked at one of their cars.

R-class is hideous though, too many clashing design ideas in one body, this somehow works.

[ikarl]

yeah, I'll go with the crowd on this one, I like it!

[vixen1700]

That does look good to be honest.

[HustleRussell]

Unremarkable. Bad rear visability, and the rear will probably feel chlaustrophobic due to the upswept window line. Front is just civic.

"only a Honda"? The company that made the NSX and Integra Type R, some jolly interesting F1 cars in the 60s and set multiple benchmarks for superbikes and touring bikes that others still try to emulate? That Honda?

Amazing that especially as it is a Civic Tourer!

Nope, just how it looks to me. If my opinion bothers you, dont read it.

R-class looks ace.

Hidden rear door handles yay!

Looks very nice, if a bit of an old mans car. If only the hatchback looked as good

I'm looking forward to the Type R but also worried it's just going to lose a lot of heritage with a turbocharged engine...

I think the R-class looks awful (I'm not too keen on the Honda either) but each to their own.

It's not your opinions that bother me or 99% of PHers, it's the way you come across. And you know exactly what we mean.
