New Honda Jazz Considered in 2015 Hottest Cars to Date


As the sales figures for the first half of 2015 have been analysed, many manufacturers will be planning out changes to their marketing strategies. However, Honda is not likely to be among them, as the new Honda Jazz is considered to be one of the hottest cars to date in 2015. The Honda Jazz 2015 range was predicted to be a strong seller, but even the Japanese auto giant could not have anticipated how firmly this new model has been embraced by the Australian car buying public.

The Top Seller:

Unfortunately, the new Honda Jazz could not take the crown as the top growth seller of the year so far. This honour was taken by the Subaru Outback, which has sold 5465 units so far this year. When you discount brand new models, which are selling well, this is a very respectable sales growth figure for this established model. Since the SUV segment is going crazy with demand at the moment, it was no real surprise that this SUV crossover is selling more than the Honda Jazz 2015 range. The Outback sales were up 312.5 percent on the 2014 year to date sales figures, which is an additional 4140 units sold.

New Honda Jazz Sales:

The Honda Jazz 2015 range almost hit the sales highs of the Outback with mid year to date sales of 5139 units. This impressive performance is up 162.3 percent on the 2014 figures, which means that the brand shifted an additional 3180 units compared to last year. This variant is approximately a year old as a new generation, which does contribute to popularity, but Honda have also initiated very sharp pricing across the range, making this model even more attractive. The Honda Jazz superb sales performance has contributed to a 10.2 percent increase on light car sales for 2015. The model  is now catching up to segment leaders Mazda 2 and Toyota Yaris rapidly, so who knows who will take the 2015 light car sales crown at the end of the year.

Honda Overall Performance:

Honda are enjoying a great sales year, thanks to the new Honda Jazz and the introduction of the HR-V. The new Honda SUV model has racked up sales of 5191 units so far this year, since it’s introduction in February. While some of their models are struggling with sales, the superb performance of the Jazz and the HR-V has meant that the brand is enjoying a 33.4 percent YTD sales growth compared to last year. With the new generation Civic anticipated before the end of the year, this could mean that the brand will finish on a real high, chasing Mazda to try for a podium slot when the end of year figures are announced.

Genuine Honda Car Parts are the Key to Reliable Performance



While Honda has a great reputation for reliability and performance, if you are tempted to try generic Honda car parts Perth drivers may be making a costly mistake. When it comes to Honda parts, Australia is filled with retailers offering generic and cheaper parts. While it may seem like an easy way to save a few dollars, you may find that you compromise the performance and efficiency of your Honda.

Genuine Honda Car Parts


Genuine All the Way!

There are a number of reasons why you should choose genuine Honda car parts. Perth drivers should be aware that genuine parts have been designed and manufactured to the exacting Honda standards. This means that each component perfectly fits into the precision machine that is your Honda. All Honda parts are carefully tested to not only check the individual performance but to assess the interaction within the whole vehicle. This ensures that each replacement component functions at optimum performance levels, offering the reliability and durability you would expect from the Japanese auto giant.

The Potential Danger of Generic Parts:

When choosing generic Honda parts Australia based drivers may give little consideration to the potential danger associated with this decision. While state and national regulations may prevent dangerous parts from being sold by our retailers, this does not mean that there is no risk. Generic parts tend to be made from lower grade materials to keep the costs lower. This means that they tend to have a far shorter lifespan than a genuine part. This means that there is an increased risk of breakdown. You may be driving with total confidence that you only had a drive belt replaced 20,000 kilometres ago, only to find that it snaps and damages other vital engine components. This means that you could be faced with a garage bill totalling thousands of dollars. Since you are unlikely to have kept all the repair details from a small garage, you will struggle to have any kind of recompense. Fortunately, with genuine Honda car parts, Perth drivers can have the reassurance of the Honda National Parts Warranty.

It’s Only a Filter. Does it Matter?

Even the most basic of components matter to the reliable performance of your Honda. While filters may appear to be an insignificant component, they actually perform a vital function. A properly designed and fitted filter can prevent dirt, dust and other debris from entering the engine. Your fuel filter can even protect your Honda from any particles of debris contained in the pumps at your local service station from clogging up your engine. A cheap generic filter could compromise the performance of your vehicle, leading it to stutter and stall, just when you need acceleration.

If you would like to know more about the benefits of genuine Honda car parts, Perth drivers should contact us at (08) 9317 5700 or please visit http://www.prestigehonda.com.au/. We are an authorised Honda service station and our technicians take pride in ensuring that our customers can have confidence that their Honda is operating at optimum efficiency, performance and safety with genuine Honda parts. Australia based drivers may regret saving a few dollars if they go elsewhere as our service is second to none.

Your Options for Honda Car Finance


If you considering buying a new or pre-owned Honda, you are likely to need some form of car finance. Perth drivers often find this topic to be confusing, but here is a basic guide to your options for Honda car finance

Honda Car Finance


Hire Purchase:

Hire purchase is a similar type of finance to a mortgage on your home. You need to pay a deposit, then make payments over a period of time agreed in advance. Once the final payment is made and the balance has been settled, the car is yours. The main benefit of hire purchase is that it is simple to understand. There are no complicated terms and conditions; you simply pay the agreed deposit and monthly payments for the agreed term. The term usually runs for sixty months and generally you can cancel without penalty. However, you may find that if you cancel early, the amount owed may be more than the value of the car. The main disadvantage to this type of finance is that the payments are typically higher compared to other forms of finance. In effect, you are paying to hire the vehicle while you pay off the finance. You will often need a large deposit and plan to keep your car for longer than the HP term.

Personal Contract Purchase:

This is a common form of Honda car finance and has a great deal more flexibility. You can usually pay a deposit to suit your circumstances and take the loan over a shorter term. At the end of the contract, there is usually a proportion of the finance which has not been paid. This leaves you with several options; you can surrender the vehicle and treat the contract as if you had hired the vehicle long term, you can pay a balloon payment to settle the balance or part exchange for a newer vehicle, using the equity on the vehicle as the deposit for your new car. This tends to work out as the cheapest option for many private buyers. You are not tied into using the same dealership every time and you may be able to afford a more expensive vehicle without having a much larger monthly repayment. Some buyers use this option and either save to pay the balloon payment at the end of the term or take out another form of finance to cover the remaining balance, allowing them to retain full ownership of the vehicle. Many dealerships will also allow you the flexibility to increase your monthly repayment to reduce the amount of the final payment if you prefer. This flexibility means that you can tailor your finance to suit your current financial circumstances.

Regardless of the type of car finance Perth drivers should always check the terms and conditions of the deal. Some plans have hefty penalties for early repayment, which can make even the most attractive deal potentially very costly should your circumstances change.

If you are looking for a great deal on your Honda finance, contact us. We have a wide selection of Honda vehicles and our sales team would be happy to assist you in arranging the finance for your next vehicle.

Four Things You Should Look For When Planning a Honda Service


Regular servicing is an important component of keeping the performance, efficiency and safety of your Honda optimised. However, when choosing a place to get your Honda service, you be a little overwhelmed by your options. Of course, you will be looking for a cost effective option but you also need to have confidence that your chosen Honda service centre will offer a high standard of service. Fortunately, there are four things you can look for to ensure that you choose the right place to care for your vehicle.

Honda Service Centre



Reasonable Pricing:

While capped price servicing is available at official Honda service centre venues, if you have an older Honda, you may not qualify. However, the age of your vehicle should not stop you being offered reasonable pricing. Wherever you choose to get your Honda service, the garage should have transparent and reasonable pricing. The garage technicians should give you the courtesy of letting you know if they find an issue which may increase the price over any quote, so you are not presented with a shock when you collect the car. This also gives you the option to query the cost if it seems unreasonable. 

A Good Reputation:

In the past, the reputation of a garage was limited to word of mouth from your family or friends. However, with the development of the internet, it has never been easier to check the reputation of your potential Honda service centre. Before you book your Honda service, it is well worth a quick internet search on consumer feedback sites or forums, to see how others have found the service. This can be a great way to bring up any red flags about dodgy practices, unfair pricing or poor service. 
Honda Expertise:
Your Honda is a precision machine and you need to have confidence that the technician has the skills and expertise to offer a high standard of service. While your local garage may repair or service a Honda every week or two, a dealership garage is likely to be working on Honda models all day, every day. This means that they are more likely to spot minor issues or problems before they can develop into a major fault.

Genuine Honda Parts:

You also need to check if the garage you plan to use for your service uses genuine Honda replacement parts. Genuine parts have been manufactured to the exact specification of Honda. This means that they are designed to deliver optimum performance and offer a prolonged lifespan. One of the reasons why some garages offer cheaper service rates is that they use generic parts. These tend to be made using lower grade materials, which means that they may have a shorter lifespan.

If you are in need of a Honda service, contact us. We are an authorised Honda service centre and our technicians have the experience and expertise to care for your Honda. Our team are happy to answer any questions or queries and book you in at a time to suit your schedule.

Top Tips for Getting a Great Deal on Your Honda Car Finance



When it comes to car finance, Perth drivers are often a little overwhelmed by their options. With financial institutions, brokers and car dealers offering “cheap” car finance, it can be difficult to determine if you have actually got the best deal on your Honda car finance. However, these top tips should be able to help.

car finance


Plan Out Your Budget:

While you may be keen on the latest sporty model, you will need to be realistic. The only way to determine if your choice of vehicle is feasible is to plan out your budget properly. This involves adding up all of your monthly expenses and the cost of running your new car and deducting this figure from your monthly income. The remaining figure is your disposable income and you could use a proportion of this for the monthly repayments on your new loan. If you don’t have sufficient disposable income for a brand new car, don’t despair as there are plenty of great used car finance deals.

Try to Provide a Deposit:

Although funds may be tight, it can be a really good idea to offer to provide a deposit. Even a small deposit can highlight your reliability and investment to any potential lenders. While you will need to ensure that you have enough cash left to cover insurance and other on the road expenses, if you can offer even five percent of the purchase price, you can significantly reduce your costs and increase your chances of approval. If you already have a vehicle, you may find that the dealership will allow you to use this trade in as a deposit on your Honda car finance. This can not only help your finance deal but save you the stress and bother of selling your old car.
Negotiate the Price:
Many car buyers looking for cheap car finance often make the mistake of not negotiating the sales price before they begin the loan paperwork. This can be a costly error and could add hundreds of dollars to the overall cost of your loan. For example, even a price reduction of a hundred dollars could save you lots of cash on interest charges over the three, five or seven years that you are paying the loan. 
Get Quotes:
Another common mistake many people make is to opt for a bank loan for their Honda car finance. While banks and other financial institutions can offer some great deals, the very attractive interest rates advertised are often reserved for people with a fantastic credit history. It is a far better idea to obtain quotes, which you can then compare to any finance deal offered in the dealership. In fact, you may find that the most attractive finance packages are offered by dealerships looking to boost sales and clear out their stock.

If you are in need of car finance Perth drivers should contact us. We have a wide selection of both new and used vehicles, with access to exclusive Honda car finance offers and deals. Our sales team would be delighted to assist you in finding the right car for you with the finance deal best suited to your needs.

Honda Civic Type R Could Be Made Even Faster


If you are considering a Honda Civic hatch for sale, Perth drivers are likely to already be aware of the development of the fast and powerful Type R variant. This version of the 2015 Honda Civic hatch has recently taken the title of the fastest front wheel drive hatch at the Nurburgring. However, the company are confident that should another vehicle show promise of stealing this title, there is still room for improvement to boost the power and speed of this hot hatch. 

Honda Civic Type R


According to Civic Type R project leader, Hisayuki Yagi, the engineering and design team had a single goal of being the fastest model front drive hatch around the Nurburgring. Yagi is confident that should another contender be developed by a rival manufacturer in the future, the Japanese auto giant intends to retain the crown. Yagi has said that if another model takes the Civic Type R record “we will take it back”.

This confidence is apparently due to the engineering team’s ability to take the Type R “right to the very edge”. Yagi is confident that there is room to generate additional power from the Type R engine and the team could also strip away more weight from the model.

The record lap time was set using a prototype vehicle, which featured the same suspension, tyres and engine used in the production team. This allowed the Honda team to clock up a lap record of 7:50:63 at Nurburgring in Nordschleife. The major modification made to the prototype appears to be removing the air conditioning module to provide compensation for the weight of the roll cage installed into the vehicle. It was reported that the roll cage had no effect on the rigidity of the car, since it was mounted using rubber blocks. This means that the new type R Honda Civic Hatch for sale, Perth drivers can assess could still deliver these impressive speeds. While it is not recommended to attempt a high speed test on our Australian roads, it is reassuring that this hatch can still offer great performance and power when it is needed to get you out of a tight spot.

The production model Type R features a four cylinder turbocharged 2.0 litre engine. This delivers 231 kW power and 400 Nm, redlining at 7,000 rpm. This impressive powerhouse is paired with a manual six speed transmission, complemented by a torque steer reducing steering knuckle and limited slip differential. Honda has claimed that this impressive combination allows the Type R to hit a zero to 100 kilometres per hour time of just 5.7 seconds, with top speeds of 270 kilometres per hour.

With regards to the new Type R Honda Civic hatch for sale, Perth enthusiasts will need to await further official details. The specification, timing and pricing are still awaiting an official announcement. However, it is anticipated that it is due to arrive in showrooms early next year.

Four Reasons to Consider the New Honda Odyssey for Sale


If you are looking for a reliable and quality people mover, you may already have viewed a Honda Odyssey for sale. Perth drivers are likely to find that there are plenty of options within this segment, but the Honda Odyssey 2015 models have a number of features which set them apart from the pack. Here are just four reasons to consider the new Honda Odyssey.




It Looks Great:

While aesthetics are often not a priority in a people mover, the boring boxy shape frequently featured in the segment is rather uninspiring. However, with the new Honda Odyssey for sale, Perth drivers will find that the Japanese auto giant has made a bold move to ensure that styling are carefully considered to give the model more appeal.


It Offers Practicality:

With seven passengers and luggage, you are likely to need a roomy and practical choice. Fortunately, the new Honda Odyssey 2015 models can oblige. The layout is fairly typical with two conventional doors at the front and two sliding doors at the rear. However, all other details have been carefully considered. For example, the sliding doors can be electrically operated by the driver, passengers or remote. There is also a key less entry system for even greater ease of use. After all, if you juggling several children and their usual trappings, you are unlikely to want to have to dig around for your keys.

It is Spacious Yet Maneuverable:

While the Odyssey feels like it offers plenty of space for all seven passengers and cargo, this does not mean that it drives like a bulky wardrobe on wheels. The actual length of the Odyssey is no larger than a medium to large SUV and it has a very tight turning circle. However, Honda have taken further consideration for the driver by including a wonderful camera system. This uses cameras mounted at the front, rear and under each wing mirror to offer a 360 degree view for the driver. This system is available at speeds under 25 km/h and even includes an overlay feature which shows where your wheels will be positioned. This is displayed on the touchscreen monitor, making parking in tight urban car parks even easier.

There’s Plenty of Storage:
Whether you are running a short errand or taking a family trip, with all seven seats occupied, you are likely to need every bit of storage space. Fortunately, the cabin has been carefully considered to offer plenty of options. From the generous size front door pockets and decent glove-box through to various cup-holders, bins and pockets, there is likely to be a handy storage option for all your phones and other devices. There is also a 12v socket and two USBs for even greater convenience. 

If you would like to know more about the latest Honda Odyssey for sale, Perth drivers should speak to us. We have a wide selection of new and pre-owned models including the Honda Odyssey 2015 models. Our sales team would be more than happy to answer any queries or assist you with a test drive.

Five Benefits of a Honda Service


Owning a vehicle can be an expensive venture. In these challenging economic times, there is a temptation to save cash by avoiding your Honda service centre and skipping your annual service. However, this is a costly mistake and here are five benefits of ensuring your vehicle has a Honda service.

Honda Car Service


Optimise Your Fuel Economy:

While it may seem a little odd to spend money to save money. However, the cost of your Honda service can be more than outweighed by the potential fuel savings. From minor engine issues to poor wheel alignment, even small defects can increase the rate at which your vehicle burns through fuel. Fortunately, your local Honda service centre has a checklist of items during a service to ensure that not only is no fuel wasted but your fuel economy is optimised for maximum efficiency.

It Ensures Occupant Safety:
While most drivers will be aware is their brakes are getting a little worn, there are other aspects of vehicle safety, which can go unnoticed. Of course, worn brakes are an important safety consideration, but it is important that you have confidence in the safety measures in your vehicle in case of an accident. A full service will ensure that all the safety features of your Honda are working correctly to protect you and your family.

It Can Reduce Repair Bills:
No one likes a repair bill, but it is easier to handle a small repair bill  rather than be faced with an outlandish repair cost. Regular servicing allows the technicians to diagnose any minor faults and highlight any component repair issues before they develop into a major fault. The replacement of a component may only add a few dollars to your service bill but if these issues neglected, you could face a hefty repair bill down the road.

Protect Your Resale Value:
Regular servicing can also be a great way to protect the resale value of your vehicle. A record of maintenance completed at your local Honda service centre can highlight the care the vehicle has received to potential buyers. Most buyers will even be prepared to pay more for this documented history. While you may take great care of your vehicle, most buyers need to see evidence of this and a lack of a service history suggests that the vehicle has not actually been properly cared for.

Protect Your Warranty:
Most new Honda models are accompanied by a comprehensive warranty. However, in order to ensure that your warranty remains valid, you need to stick to the recommended maintenance schedule featured in your owner handbook. Skipping a service could actually compromise your warranty and result in a repair claim being denied in the future. With capped price servicing available on models registered from 2012, it is certainly worth investing in the future of your vehicle.

If you are in need of a Honda service, speak to us. We are an authorised Honda service centre with a team of experienced technicians. Our aftercare team would be happy to answer any queries or arrange to book your vehicle in at your earliest convenience.

Your Guide to the Takata Airbag Recall


If considering a Honda Jazz for sale, Perth drivers may be concerned about all the news headlines regarding the Takata airbag recall. Fortunately, for those reading a new Honda Jazz review, the airbag recall is not an issue, but if you are researching a pre owned model, it is worth being aware of the exact nature of the problem.


Honda Jazz

What’s the Problem?
The Takata airbag recall is related to a defect in the airbag inflators which are fitted to the airbags in certain vehicles. The defective inflators, fitted to driver or front passenger airbags, are particularly susceptible to the intrusion of moisture over time. This can cause the inflator to rupture when the airbag deploys. This can create a situation where small shards of metal are released with the potential to hit and injure occupants. This issue has been rumoured for years, as faults were blamed on manufacturer error and issues with component handling. However, Takata has recently acknowledged responsibility for the defect.

The Extent of the Problem:
The Takata recall has set a record as the largest recall in automotive history. It is estimated to affect over 12 car manufacturers and 53 million vehicles globally. This includes over half a million vehicles in our local market, with 410,000 recalled by Toyota, Nissan and Honda. This means that if you are considering a used Honda Jazz for sale, Perth drivers should ensure that they check whether the vehicle is affected by the recall.
As of late May, there are over 53 million vehicles listed under the recall notice, with 34 million in the United States. The defect has been linked to in excess of 100 injuries and six fatalities. Fortunately, there have been no reported injuries or incidents relating to the defect in Australia at this stage.

Which Cars Are Affected?
There are a number of Honda models listed in the recall. It is important to note that not all vehicles listed in the recall groups are definitely affected by this issue, but manufacturers are erring on the side of caution for safety’s sake. The complete list of Honda models affected to date are:
Honda Accord Euro 2004-07
Honda Civic 2004-05
Honda CR-V 2002-08
Honda Jazz 2004-09

Correcting the Problem:
Manufacturers will be attempting to issue notifications to owners of affected vehicles by mail. These will be issued to last known addresses and will provide an estimated date of when replacement parts will be available. While replacement parts are being prepared, the unprecedented number of recalled vehicles globally means that there may be insufficient parts available to complete the recall until 2016.
Correcting the problem involves your vehicle being in the garage for approximately an hour and a half, depending on the vehicle. It is possible that one or both inflators will need to be replaced. However, this work will be completed without cost to the vehicle owner. This lack of charge should dissuade some owners from trying to palm off an affected vehicle on an unsuspecting buyer. However, if you find a used Honda Jazz price to be a little unrealistic, it is certainly worth further investigation.
If you would like to know more about the Takata recall or any vehicles in the Honda range, contact us. We have a wide selection of vehicles including the new Honda Jazz for sale Perth. Drivers will also find that we have a selection of used Honda models, which have already been checked for defects. Our sales team would be delighted to assist you.

Honda Baby NSX is Taking Shape

There has been a great deal of speculation about the development of Honda’s new coupe. When questioning the sales staff at Honda dealerships, Perth drivers have often come away with little to no information. Fortunately it appears that the Baby NSX is taking shape and while you are unlikely to see it in your local car dealership Perth, Honda enthusiasts can expect to see more and more details being released about this edgy coupe.

Honda dealers in Perth


The rendering of the Baby NSX has recently been released along with more information about this closely guarded development. This will be the third mid engine sports car developed by the Japanese auto giant. It is anticipated that this coupe will share similar proportions to the brand’s new flagship super car. However, it is also anticipated that this model will incorporate innovations and technology from the mid engined four wheel drive NSX. This should deliver a powerful combo which has the potential to be a serious class leader.
It was reported in late 2014 that the team of Honda engineers were evaluating the viability of marketing a third type of mid engined coupe. This model was suggested to slot into the gap between the bigger NSX and the mini roadster 660cc S660. This was suggested to form the basis of a powerful S1000 destined for the export markets. It is thought that this new model will be presented as a successor to the S2000.
This development is very significant considering that Honda is set on course to launch three models of all new sports car, the S660/S1000, NSX and Civic Type R by the middle of next year. There is also an anticipated release of the second generation CRZ model by 2018.
Although when questioning Honda Dealerships Perth, drivers may have found little information, a Dutch website managed to uncover images attached to a recent Honda patent registration. These images show that the mid sized sport coupe will demonstrate a family resemblance to the NSX and the S660. Therefore, the production planners at Honda considering an all new two seater mid size coupe demonstrates the seriousness of the company’s determination to revitalise their sports car range. There is even speculation that this new model could be in development to compete as a direct rival to the Alfa Romeo 4C or the Porsche Cayman.
It is thought that the US was the driving force for the decision to begin development of the coupe. Since the US is likely to be the primary market and the NSX is being assembled there, this seems sensible, especially as it is likely that the baby NSX will also be built there.  It is expected that this new model will have a world debut at the Detroit motor show in 2018.
If you would like to know more about the great new vehicles on offer at Honda dealerships, Perth drivers should contact us. We are one of the best Honda dealers in Perth, with a wide selection of both new and used Honda models. Our sales team would be delighted to answer any questions or arrange your test drive.

Limited Edition 2015 Honda City Launched

If you are in the market for a decent family car, you have likely to have read a number of Honda City review articles. However, before committing to a Honda City for sale, Perth drivers may be interested to note that the brand have just launched a 2015 limited edition.
With this latest Honda City for sale Perth, consumers will find a very reasonable price tag. The official launch details confirm that this limited edition is available from $19,490 plus on the road costs. This places the model $1500 over the base model City VTi, on which the limited edition is based.

Car dealers Perth


Aesthetically, there are some noticeable differences. In comparison to the VTi, this limited edition gains a front sports grille, 15 inch alloys and a Modulo rear spoiler. With regards to features,  there is a number of extras over and above the standard VTi package. This includes 7.0 inch touchscreen display audio system with audio streaming and Bluetooth connectivity, HDMI connectivity, Siri Eyes Free voice control, multi angle reversing camera, two USB ports, cruise control and CD player.
If you have read any Honda City reviews, it is likely that you are already aware of the impressive performance offered by this model. The Limited Edition showcases this engineering prowess with a continuously variable automatic transmission exclusively. This CVT system sends the power of the four cylinder 1.5 litre petrol engine to the front wheels. This allows the City to harness the 88 kW of power and 145 Nm torque efficiently. You can expect impressive fuel economy figures of 5.7 litres per 100 kilometres on a combined cycle.
According to Honda, there will be 300 of the limited edition models available for local customers. Since the current Honda City is performing well with sales up 57.1 percent year on year, it is anticipated that this limited edition will available for very long. Honda Australia has registered 1037 units this year, leaving the Mitsubishi Mirage trailing behind in the sales figures.
This popularity should make the limited edition an instant hit and ensure that this variant holds its value well. This encouragement of sales should offer Honda Australia an impressive boost in the figures and help the company to achieve their 2015 sales targets. As the brand are also looking to expand their vehicle line up with at least one sports coupe late this year, it appears that Honda is making a play to be considered the most popular brand among Australian car buyers. With solid sales performers such as the Honda City, Jazz and Civic, limited edition models and new releases should further boost sales and leave the brand ending the year on a real high.
If you would like to know more about the limited edition Honda City for sale, Perth drivers should contact us. We have a wide selection of both new and used Honda models. Our sales team would be happy to provide Honda City review details, answer any questions or arrange for your test drive.
