Not a Honda, but have bought a car from them in the past.

A bit of an unusual and clinical experience, but a fine one all the same.

The car will have come in from Europe and generally will be missing locking wheel nuts and an alarm. Both of these items can of course be easily added.

You will also find the car will have been registered the day before to a leasing company in Exeter and you will be the 2nd owner. It will also be running on fumes fuel wise, so make sure the depot you collect from has a fuel station very close by, or take a gallon tank with you to be on the safe side.

There finance rates can be quite expensive e.g approx 16% on a pcp arrangement.

Scope out Bob Gerard's for comparison - they do EU imports from new as well as 2nd hand ones.

Not bought from them, but test-drove one from there and if it hadn't been full-red interior I would have bought - very good service and very sensible prices!

Motorpoint - you get what you pay for, as the previous poster has opined. You might not be allowed to test-drive it either, or at most a quick round-the-block...

Havoc you are being generous, it's a quick spin around the compound.
