What's the 2007 Honda Civic like?

Hi James,

The official fuel test rating for that model of Civic (it is a Civic you're talking about, right?) was 44mpg, but in daily use we'd expect you'd get closer to 35mpg, especially if you're using it in town a lot. 

As for reliability, generally Honda is one of the best car makers when it comes to longevity and solidity, but we have heard tales of this generation of Civic eating its way swiftly through brake pads and discs and there are the usual minor electrical maladies to check for too. We have also heard of suspension wear and tear issues, but those don't seem to be widespread.

Hope that helps
