I`m getting the 2.2 EX GT. I'm just surprised that there's not much info on the car even from Hondas website. I`ll no doubt be asking a load of questions to confirm what's different as the guy at Honda I called didn't sound too convincing.
Heres what I`ll pick up next week.

Im too young to know what one of those is. :blush: Actually I was thinking of starting a pole on the average age of an 8th gen owner. We did it on the RB5 forum and it proved quite interesting. I just wondered if there was any owners under the age of 35

Thinking about changing my 7th Gen Tourer for an 8th Gen. I don't do enough miles to make a diesel worthwhile, but the current Which? report gives the petrol version just 2 stars for breakdowns (based on 87 reports). My 7th Gen has been very reliable. Should I believe the Which? report?

Nice one mate and a lovely car it is
Another new 8th Gen owner here, Used to have a 7th Gen 2.4 for a few years, then went to a diesel Mondeo (175bhp) which lasted a year before I got sick of the bad build quality/unreliability/bad Ford service!
I've got the 2.4 EX Tourer, thought about the 2.2iDtec but was put off by the slightly higher service frequency/costs and potential for Turbo/DPF issues when out of warranty. TBO I've been put off diesels for the next few years until they Iron out these DPF issues, seems no manufactuer can get it perfect yet!
I was going to hold out for a 2.0 EX Tourer but I've still yet to see one for sale!
