Dirty Girty Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 3 months ago I bought the new Honda Civic 2.0 litre, its a great car and goes like a rocket. I love it and am very glad I went for that model. it is great fun to drive when the traffic is not bad. Today I was gobsmacked........ I saw a new 1.8 liter Civic being used as a taxi. first of all there is no leg room in the back so I could not imagine going for a ride in that taxi. I wonder what Honda would say about that, It cant be good for there reputation. but also for fuel, these cars drink. this is the reason I did not go for Toyota, because most of there cars are used as taxis.

I will keep my eyes open and will take a photo next time. the 2.0 litre is without doubt the best car I have had. the engine revs very high and sounds great when you push it. its a very well built car and I recomend it to everyone. its a lot of car for the money.

Skyline Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 Yes,The VTEC engines rev high........mine revs to over 8k before redline! If I can find a 2.0litre engine from a new Civic,I think I will buy one and put it into mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a picture of it. Took it 2 months ago. It was a red one. The reason why I made a pic was that I thought that Honda wouldn't allow ist cars being used as taxi. Will upload soonest as I took it with my phone and currently dont have that phone with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think Honda will not be happy, I heard it happened before and Honda bought the car back off the driver. it must make an expensive taxi to run. I hope it does not turn into a fad, I will sell my car if it does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
