The new news 24 thread

Spaceship Civic and newer too. Honda magic seats are amazing. Seat bases fold up or put the seat backs down to get a totally flat loading area. Great for transporting model RC aircraft!

 

 

Didn't know you flew. I had an aerosport 40 years ago (actually still got it somewhere).

[SiC]

Yeah, I have a small fleet of planes.

[Guest Hooli]

Nice!

 

Mine is still in my parent's loft ( I only put it there about 20 years ago)

Tomorrow's job is a clutch on a Maserati Indy . !

Now this can go one of two ways - an absolute cunt or a piece of piss and nothing in between.

[Guest Hooli]

Oh that needs pics!

[phil_lihp]

Easier than a Hiace?

[twosmoke300]

I would be very surprised if it was easier than a hiace. Really don't know why I take on this shit when I've got a yard full of normal stuff to work on

[dollywobbler]

I thought instead that the Honda Jazz has been doing that for over 15 years...

 

I've been fortunate enough never to go anywhere near one.

[twosmoke300]

Jazz is a great car

[richardmorris]

My ex boss has had a couple of jazzs now. I don't think he's had any trouble with either. Basically bought as the dealer is literally round the corner from their house.

Gearbox bearings get noisy and rear wheel bearing / hubs are a bit weak but that and usual jap caliper issues aside they are good cars

[Eddie Honda]

I've been fortunate enough never to go missing out all these years because I haven't been anywhere near one.

 

FTFY.

 

Take a quick look at the "magic seats"of the Jazz. Go on, you know you want to: http://autoshite.com/topic/23704-what-makes-you-grin-antidote-to-grumpy-thread/page-1072?do=findComment&comment=904620

And the shit paint round the inner door/window frames and leaky rear roof seams...

 

and dodgy start clutches on GD CVTs.

 

apart from that they are good cars.

I drove a Jazz once, did about 200yrds. Felt like it was made of tin foil & they'd fitted a noise box rather than an engine.

[Honey Badger]

I quite liked the Jazz 1.4 we used to get as a curtesy car, revvy little engine, funky interior for the time and quite chuckable.

 

This positive review is only based on driving one to and from Kettering Honda though, so its not a long term test.

 

Hows my your Accord doing Mr Twostroke?

[vulgalour]

Just saw this TR7 post on Twitter and was amazed.

 

 

 

Pretty certain the hatch is from a Datsun 120 "glassback" and it's an astonishingly good fit to the TR7's overall shape.

 

[DodgeRover]

Is it only me and the much maligned designed who actually thought TR7s especially the soft tops were a nice shape?

[cort16]

The back is the clumsiest part of the tr7 that conversion looks so much better .

[twosmoke300]

Accord is good I think - dad has stolen it off me to go to Dorset and he seems to like it .

[Mr_Bo11ox]

That TR7 is flippin ace!!!!!

[Ghosty]

I saw a large pickup badged as a Fiat earlier are they rebadged L200s?

[andy18s]

Fiat Strada?

[captain_70s]

Just saw this TR7 post on Twitter and was amazed.

What a curious Porsche 924...

[reb]

Just finished the running in period on the Golf!

I love the TR7, Fuego spec!

 

Now to build one, who can sell me a Datsun 120 glass hatch. Umm thought not much more difficult that getting the car!

Fiat Fullback.

[Roverageous]

New 75 dropped in for MOT. I think it may fail.
