Generally solid cars..........with quite a bit of influence from Honda is the design and build quality which helps. I personally find the 1400cc models a bit lacking in power but the engine is Honda based so is reliable. The interiors, (of UK specification models at least) are usually of above average quality and materials. Still plenty around on UK roads and many being used as Taxis which is re-assuring to a certain extent. Agree with Goik, get the best one you can afford and look after it and it should give good service.
