Honda Civic 20MMD CVT Advance

Mileage 13,274 List price when new (2022) £36,450 Price new with options £36,450 Value now £33,000 Test economy 55.2mpg

WHEN A CAR is as astonishingly economical as my Honda Civic, I feel much more inclined to jump in and go somewhere at the drop of a hat.

And when I say 'astonishingly, I really mean it. Based on my brim-to-brim calculations, this 181bhp hybrid car has actually beaten Honda's official 56.5mpg figure a number of times, and it generally hovers at around 55mpg - better than I averaged in my previous plug-in hybrid Vauxhall Astra. That's good news for the environment and great news for my wallet.
