2002 Honda Jazz VTI review from Australia and New Zealand
"Innovative and cool to drive"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
What a great car! Practical, innovative, economical, safe. A pleasure to drive. Wasn't looking for a small car, but I was convinced to test drive it as soon as I jumped in the cabin. The quality is unmached for it's price, stereo awsome (model should be called hip hop) and there is enough room for 4 adults to go on a very long distance without any problems. What really got me is the crisp 5 speed gearbox. With it's short throws it feels like something out of a expensive sports car, It certainly makes the 1.5 litre V-tech motor fun to play with. Australia recieved a 1.5 V-tech as well as a 1.3 Dsi where as Europe apparently missed out on the sporty 1.5 motor. It really is a cool car and being a 21 y. o male who doesn't mind putting a bit of pedal to the metal I will enjoy driving it.
