honkinsam Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 Hi all New to the forum and wondered how people have fared with the hybrid CRV. After a lot of narrowing down, it's between a 2019 hybrid CRV (58k) for £20,300 and a Skoda Karoq 1.5 petrol for £18000, both from main dealers. I'd be particularly interested to know: 1) how reliable have people found the hybrid CRV? 2) how comfortable have they found the seats? 3) how have people found Honda dealers (I've heard expensive) and whether people are happy taking their hybrids to trusted local mechanics instead. We do mainly short trips, so a car that does better mpg in city driving would suit us very well. We love the space and I love the hybrid technology. It seems to drive really well. After two test drives, I'm still not quite sure whether the seats are supportive enough (I'm 6 ft 2, 13 and 1/2 stone, and prone to lower back ache), and I'm surprised it doesn't come with roof bars as standard. Grateful for any/all advice. We are hoping to make a decision this weekend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 Did you go for the Honda in the end? If so, how have you found it so far? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFridge Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 Coming a bit late to this so hope this is OK; how many VAG products do you see broken down at the side of the road? And how many Hondas? I use Vertu for all my servicing, not cheap but very happy with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
