I bought 7th generation 2.2 CDTi 2 months ago. Car had 92K miles with full honda service history. It is Ex trim level so well equipped. Car is excellent and reliable (done 3K already).
I have few complaints though
1- Road noise is bad on when you are driving 60-70 MPH..
2- Despite of lumbar support, I cannot find comfortable position. I have a feeling the seat is not parallel to fuel / brake pedal and you sit in slightly twisted position.
I have changed my job recently and spending 1.5-2 hours in the morning and same sort of time in the evening on M25.
I am sure that some of you moved from MK7 to MK8. Can I kindly ask few questions;
1- What difference have you felt when you moved to MK8?
2- is the road noise less in MK8?
3- Are the seats more comfortable than MK7?
4- I am planning to do 20K miles / year and would you say that MK8 is reliable car?
5- Based on miles, diesel will be perfect. Auto and manual? I am leaning toward Auto as M25 traffic means frequent gear changes.
Any input?
PS: Sorry for asking these questions but I rather ask all these then regretting later on. Thanks .
