Re: e test drives

I have written it elsewhere, but I think the e is a heart over head purchase. You are buying a small, luxury item which l’m less sure can be justified on logic. There far cheaper, bigger, longer range EV on the market. But at the price point - I think only the Mini E is similar. Reasonable performan...

Re: UK service offer

I wouldn’t be surprised if they extend the offer - as they haven’t delivered anything yet 😊 My dealer said the e, like the Type R is a halo vehicle and not part of their dealer targets. It’s a lower margin for them (small violin time). So less opportunity for discounts. But hopefully keep their valu...

Re: Honda E sound system, what brand?

I thought the system sounded fine with Spotify.
There is separate bass, mid and treble adjustment, together with the separate subwoofer level.

Re: e test drives

Nice review Keith. You have obviously driven the Leaf a lot more than me. But I didn’t get on with the Nissan. I used one peddle driving quite a bit and got on well with it. Someone here said about the paddles seeming reversed - pull on the minus one for more braking, plus for less. Agreed it’s the ...

Re: e test drives

I think the interior is good quality. Maybe not quite as good as the Mini E. but much better than every other EV (excluding Taycan, iPace & EQ Merc 😊 Honda has gone in a different direction with the interior compared to every other car manufacturer. You either like it (I do) or you think it’s a ...

Re: Honda e can self park

I was not able to test the self park on my test drive. Honda garage parking bay markings not strong enough to read
But that’s a good point about reverse parking into a bay. When the charge point is at the front of the car. Doh!

Re: e test drives

No I didn’t feel hands blocking the camera mirror screens were an issue
There was a bit of reflection off the centre camera mirror. But not an issue
Left hand stalk end button pressed adds marks on the side mirror display to show distance/perspective

Re: e test drives

My order is delayed as stated elsewhere until Aug. I spent time talking to the dealer Principal. Said this is a halo car for Honda like the Type R. Not included in their targets. Less margin. So less opportunity for discount (but he say that). He made the point that the car should keeps it value bet...
