The bad news is that the price of scrap steel has dropped 80% from its peak ... The good news is that the wreck has become the property of your insurance company ... The bad news is that if you ever get the money from the insurance company then interest rates are real low ... and the bank will probably go broke the day afterwards ...

The good news is that the wreck has become the property of your insurance company …

The bad news is that if you ever get the money from the insurance company then interest rates are real low … and the bank will probably go broke the day afterwards …

The good news is that cars are getting much cheaper …

The bad news is that you won’t be driving it for a while ..

Ain’t life a bitch?

I had the original model 2 litre and it handled and braked like a dog, but the new version was/is great. Best of all is the lovely engine and the paddle shift which works really well, makes it a joy to drive. It's not a sports car, but it's a lot of driving fun for the money. Once the insurance company gets off it;'s butt, I will probably buy another. Very nicely, for a saloon car in Thailand.

However there does appear to be a flaw in the handling such that it becomes airborne and rolls if you drive at speed into a concrete barrier. All the airbags, the seatbelt and a pretty solid roof construction combined to keep me alive and only moderately damaged. It was a very nice Honda Civic 2.0 litre.

It could have been much worse! Seat belts really do save lives! I'm sure you were wearing yours...right? I'll be the first to bid on the heap of metal. How 'bout a purple note?
