What things have gone wrong with the car?

Nothing at all.

General comments?

Wow, I didn't know cars can be like this, smooth engine and comfortable, yet with good handling and power to match, much better than the last two volkswagen products I have had, feels better screwed together and the engine is second to none for refinement, so quiet on tickover you sometimes forget it is running.

Well done honda, its vtec for me from now on, as I can't go back to the faults and gruf engines in the vw stable.

This is the origional poster of this review.

Just past 14,500 miles now, still nothing wrong with the car, just had my 25000 service and as the mileage was low they charged me for a 12,500 mile service £90 plus £30 for fully synth that I wanted, I was able to book the car in straight away (prob because they don't have a backlog of problem cars like VW and Seat). The service was carried out in 2 hours and the car was washed and parked without scratching or denting the car (unlike Seat or VW).

I think VW need to learn from these things, their cars cost too much, are problematic and servicing is double in price for less quality.
