@@shax2321.8 Tourer Civic takes 7.5 urban conditions only. Hatchback is probably 0.5 liters less. Weight of hatchback vs Tourer is maybe 50kg difference or maybe less. Open road is 6 liters and highway at 120kmh is 6.5 liters/100km.
Basic trim of this 9th gen. You have more attractive look with the sport trim (black alloy rims, stiffer suspensions and so on). With the magic seats and that solid little r18, you get a very good daily car. And easy to improve 👍 Thanks for your video !
Thank you for the video! I have now same fk2 manual civic but tourer body and lifestyle spec (full Led lights, 320w soundsystem etc). Love the car and how it handles
Haha! My mate who used to work at Honda when this car released, he said that the civic Euro was called the "Spaceship" or "UFO" because of how funny looking it was. I met a guy who has thr type r version of this car, he said it's really fun to drive on the kaimais since the handling is fantastic. I just hope he hasn't fallen off since I met him 💀
Over here in Aus my partner has one in the VTI-S manual spec and same engine as in your review. I don't think they called it the Euro in Australia and the manual was only offered without the luxury features such as touchscreen radio, heated seats, projector headlights etc. Can't say I agree about the clutch and engine experience, to me the clutch is very vague and marshmallow-like and the engine takes a long time to get into high revs and doesn't have power until you get there. But I do love the way it handles and I resonate with the steering feeling light but being a positive experience. Thanks for another great video with a car you don't hear much about!
Thanks man! I can see what you mean about the clutch, it’s still vague like a modern car. But somehow despite that it’s still extremely easy to drive quickly and smoothly without that annoying bucking effect a lot of modern cars have
This is the closest desription of 1.8 i-Vtec or R18Z4 engine. It is sloppy but I guess they can easily crack 250k miles with original engine. As such build by Honda till 2017 they would be the last good reliable NA engines ever made by any car maker. Some already cracked 230k on these engines ...
this is my daily. i cannot fault anything. practical, economical and easy to maontain yourself. will keep it until it falls apart. for fun i just bought a bmw 125i coupe.
I still have this model but 1.6 i-dtec (your diesel pic showed cdti which is 2.2 8g civic, 7g accord and 3g crv), bought it new in 2014 cant make myself change it. There is also 2.2 i-dtec version, and even better 4wd crv comes in 1.6 twin turbo (compound) with as much power and tq as 2.2 one. The R series 1.8 and 2l are fine engines, but hondas idtec are amazing, so refined and easy to drive. Nice manual box on those diesels too.
Got one in exclusive spec ( executive + glass roof) with DPF delete, 400Nm tq and 135 KW, still gives GTIs grief in gear acceleration excluding gear changes.. Now at 260K kms...
Test drove one recently and did notice how good the gear change was, I'm a terrible driver and usually fumble the gear changes a bit on cars that are new to me but not this one, nice short throw and a positive feel to it.
I've got a high mileage one of those in manual too, it has some sort of problem with the fuel system, you see it takes a long time to use a tank of fuel 🤣 Apart from being 12mm off the ground, and anything taller than a 6 year old child will bang their head on the ceiling in the back seat, it's a fantastic motor car.
@@KiwiCarLife it's ok in the front, just try being passenger in the back seat though, that stylised coupe body limits rear head room. It's like a fit with a custom roof chop and a big block engine swap.
Hello there Liam, I am thinking of buying a more modern Honda here in Europe and I need an estate. The only two options here are the Tourer/ estate version of the Civic (2014-2017) and the Accord CW1/2 which is even more hard to find these days. The car market is pretty much dead at the moment which is why I am thinking of buying either one … how does the Civic compare to the MkVIII CW1/2 estate? Are there any downsides with buying the Civic? How is the noise insulation compared to the Accord? I currently drive an Accord CE2 Wagon and it’s terrible at Autobahn speeds. It’s very loud and tiring on longer journeys. Basically I am pretty tempted to buy a lot of interesting cars that you have either owned or reviewed but as a family man I have got to stick to an estate😂 I love the CL9, the CU2 Accords and the Lexus IS as well but they aren’t really that roomy and practical. The CN Accords are from what I have heard also pretty bad at soundproofing so the 8th gen Accord Wagon and 9th gen Civic Euro Tourer are therefore the remaining candidates.
I have Civic Tourer 1.8iVtec bought it cheap here in Switzerland with only 85.000km. Looks brand new. To be honest Civic has good aerodynamic that is better then Accord regardless which year. Sound proofing is ok at 160kmh at least for me is better then even some premium like Passat B8. I am going for vacation soon so I will test it to 200kmh to compare to other cars I had. Tires also play big role the better those are the less noise in the cabin also.I have some Michelin for sommer but will change to Dunlop as I had better expirence overall.
0:16 the funniest part is the 'American' version of that gen Civic isn't even sold in America, it was sold in Canada as the Acura CSX but the American civic of that time had a completely different (IMO uglier) look. As for the European versions they actually got both the sedan and hatch like you guys but with different specs such as an optional 2.2L diesel engine.
A similar Civic is my current car: 2016, 1.8, FL, HB. I've done over 100k km since 2021 (it has 137k km now) and there were NO issues at all. However, I disagree with you about a few things. One: comfort. This car is a great daily for the city and suburbs, but the highway is not its natural environment. Driving over 120 kmh (in Poland we have speed limits up to 140 kmh on HWays) is very noisy due to the engine. In my opinion, 6th gear is too short. Two: Steering. It is too nervous. In my opinion, the reason is power steering, which is way too soft. My previous car was an Accord Type S '03. Civic is not even close to ATS regarding steering and overall handling. Three: gearbox. As I mentioned before, gears are too short 5th, and especially 6th. Moreover, sometimes it is hard to get into some gear, mostly 2nd and 3rd, but maybe it is only my car issue. Four: car audio. It is a joke, not an audio. Replace it immediately! Although the above cons, the pros of this car prevail. Reliable, cheap to maintain (not cheap to buy though, here in the EU!), superb Magic Seats feature, and last but not least the look. This is a car from 2015 (Face Lift version) and it looks more modern than the Civic X.
