A
Most of our drivers said the A3 was their definite favourite in this group. They described it as refined and comfortable with good handing characteristics and fight, precise steering.
All the seats were comfortable and the front ones were easy to adjust. Most drivers liked the driving position,helped by a good range of steering wheel and seat height adjustments. The main instruments were clear and dash-board controls were well positioned.
Mirror coverage was excellent but our drivers complained that the view out of the rear was badly hindered by the high rear window line and thick pillars.
Getting into the back seats was easy, thanks to a clever seat mechanism, which moves the seat up and forward as well as tilting the backrest. Rear legroom was reasonable but the rear seat was only barely wide enough for three adults.
Luggage space was average for this class of car but you have to remove the rear head restraints to fold the rear seat. There were plenty of useful interior storage spaces.
All A3s come with an alarm and immobilizer as standard. Our ' thief' got in through the doors in 20 seconds,but the radio was a non-standard fit, which is probably to deter thieves.
The hinges of the rear seats could release inan accident, allowing luggage to crash through into the passenger com-partment. Also, the driver's knees could be damaged by stiff structures under the dash.
Some parts of the fuel system and electrics would be vulnerable to damage in a frontal collision
B
Honda says its special VTEC engine has a winning combination of economy and performance, But our driv-ers found it a bit of a curate's egg. It was the most economical of the cars on test, But drivers found it slug-gish at low revs, and its acceleration in the fifth gear was slow, so overtaking normally meant having to shift down to the fourth gear.
The driving position was acceptable, but our panel criticized the restricted rear visibility--the rear window was quite small. Drivers found the back rest supportive but it was not available to make t'me adjustments to the angle.
The ride comfort was acceptable, But it wasn't as good as the Audi's or Rover's.
The driver's seat didn't slide forward when it was tilted, making rear access awkwardly from this side. In the back, headroom and legroom was excellent but testers didn't find the seats particularly comfortable.
The luggage space was small for this class of car, especially with the rear seats in place. However, folding the rear seat to increase luggage space was easy.
Other points proved by our panel included well-placed minor controls, good mirror coverage, But fiddly radio controls.
All Civics come with an immoblizer but no alarm. You may want to consider paying extra for an alarm, as our thief' broke into through the doors in 13 seconds, and into the engine bay in just five seconds.
There were stiff structures under the dash which could damage the driver's knees in an accident, though there was no problem on the passenger's side. The handbook (like the Audi's) provided suggestion on using child re-straints.
C
The 1.6-1itre engine had good power delivery at both high and low revs but some drivers complained that it was noisy at high revs. The brakes didn't have very good progression, But drivers like their positive feel.
Ride comfort and the handling were recommended. But drivers found it difficult to achieve a comfortable driving position. The driver's seat was not beight-adjustable, and there was only limited space to rest your dutch foot.
Some testers also found the seat backrest uncomfortabte. Visibility was barried by the small mirrors. The rear view was also restricted by thick pillars and the small tear window.
Getting into the back was tricky becanse the front seats did not slide forward when tilted. Once in the back, leg-room and headroom were poor, and testers complained that their tear seat base was unsuppottive.
Luggage space was smaller than average for this class of car--this was compounded by a high boot sill and dif-ficulties in folding the rear seat. But there were large pockets in the doors and rear side panels.
The main radio controls were more convenient;they were mounted on the steering wheel so drivers didn't have to take their hands off the wheel to use them.
Our Rover 200s came with an alarm, though this isn't standard on all versions. Our thief' broke in through the doors in 15 seconds.
Some of the electrics would be vulnerable in a frontal impact. The rear seat hinges could release in an accident,allowing luggage to crash through into the passenger compartment. Also, information in the handbook on using child restrains was not adequate.

D
At some point, most everything gets discounted, the regular retail price slashed and likely noted with over-sized red numerals and exclamation marks. In early spring, there are sales to clear out excess snow shovels and discounts on lawn furniture to get a head start on the upcoming summer season, which itself follows with selling
bonanzas showcasing air conditioners and swimming apparel, or maybe 2-for-1 tickets to the local amusement park.
Through it all, car manufacturers and dealers are offering every incentive under the sun to move the metal, an exercise that is becoming increasingly difficult because of one commodity' s unwillingness to decrease in price more than a few pennies every now and again. Gasoline never goes on sale, much to the disdain of SUV, truck, and large sedan-selling dealers everywhere. Unless, of course, they operate under a Toyota sign, which means that sitting next to the VS-powered, four-wheel-drive Tundra pickup is a 2007 Canary Hybrid, a midsize sedan that gets an EPA-estimated 40 mpg in the city, and at just under $ 31,000 fully loaded, could be considered a bargain even at its retail price.
Power for the 192-horsepower 2007 Toyota Camry Hybrid comes from the company' s Hybrid Synergy Drive,the same gas/electric system used in the Prius and Highlander Hybrid SUV. In the Camry version, that includes a 2.4 liter, dual overhead cam,16-valve four-cylinder engine with variable valve timing. Engine output measures 147 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 138 lb. -ft. of torque at 4,400 rpm, with the hybrid' s electric motor tacking on a-bout 45 horsepower and 199 lb. -ft. of torque available from 0 - 1,500 rpm.
