The HONDA CIVIC (2011-15) 5DR TOURER 1.6 I-DTEC DPF SS 120 EU5 EX PLUS 6SPD is a compact family estate, adding a long, practical boot to the familiar Civic hatchback shape. It sits between ordinary family hatchbacks and larger estates, making it a useful UK all-rounder rather than a bulky load-lugger. With a 1.6-litre diesel, six-speed manual and stop-start technology, it is suited to regular commuting, motorway journeys and family holidays, where its spacious cabin and generous luggage room come into their own. EX Plus trim gives this Civic Tourer a well-equipped feel, while its economical-minded engine makes it appealing to drivers covering steady distances. Compared with Ford Focus and Volkswagen Golf estates, the Honda stands out for clever packaging and a distinctive, upright design, while remaining easy to drive. mycarcheck.com records 93 look-ups across 40 distinct VINs; the checked cars averaged £7,100, 86,000 miles and about two previous keepers.
