Crv2004 Clutched May 16, 2005 Share May 16, 2005 The CRV is a very good car to drive man . It is very spacious man and the engine also very good . The pickup also quite good. The bad thing is that the fuel consumption is about 9km/l and the noise also not rather bad . Rest all of the thigs are very good man.Great style man Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plinius Neutral Newbie May 20, 2005 Author Share May 20, 2005 Just went to test drive the CRV today with my friends. The car looks really coolz! from the interior to the exterior, the handbrake is really coolz..heh.... In comparison to the Subaru Forester, the interior of the CRV is really very SPACIOUS! As I'm rather tall (6 ft), i would usually push the driver seat till the max, when in this position, I could sit comfortably at the passenger seat behind...... The dial is really nice too..there is this digital scale that shows your instanteous fuel consumption rate.... the engine idling speed is abt 600rpm, and is really quiet, no vibration....... as for the power/pick up of the CRV, i would say on the average side, of course not as power as the Forester, but i wish it would have more pick up... maybe coz we fully loaded the CRV with 3 rear male passenger during the test drive........... overall, i think i'm in love with the CRV ..... next thing is to bring my wife aka CFO down for a test drive...heh.... and decide on the color...heh Cheers........

Tploh Clutched May 20, 2005 Share May 20, 2005 Have you considered Nissan's X-trail ? I once was considering CRV and X-trail and preferred the X-trail because of the cabin space. I am also 182 cm and thus prefer the larger X-Trail. Eventually, I did not buy any of the two, as I was moving to a new country then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plinius Neutral Newbie May 21, 2005 Author Share May 21, 2005 hi, not really keen of the X-Trail, coz personally I dun like the design and it is 2.5L, the road tax is like SGD1K more yearly......... cheers........ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tploh Clutched May 21, 2005 Share May 21, 2005 I must agree with you about the road tax. I made that comparison when I was in Australia, so I did not have to worry about that. Inside, X-Trail is quite plastic and squarish. But CRV, despiterecent face lift, is still quite an old design to me. But beauty lies in the eye of the beholder.

Kelpie 2nd Gear May 21, 2005 Share May 21, 2005 1. I've tried CRV and Forester. Althought I'm driving a Civic, I would prefer Forester than CRV anytime. Actually I don't find them appealing in term of design but Forester is a better car in term of performance and handling. 2. CRV seems more spacious becase it has a taller cabin so handling will not be as smooth as the the Forester, which is lower and drive more like a car than the van-like styling in other SUVs. 3. If I can afford, i will go for Outback instead. Anyway, I was told by the SE that they may be bringing a MPV. Regards, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup that is why i say that you will like it man . But Forester i not sure because i never try before but to me the design o the forester is not as good as the CRV but handling wise i think that the Forester will be much better because of the all wheel drive system (But it is a fuel drinker) . From my point of view i like the CRV the most next to the Lexus Rx300(Previous Version ) or the Landrover (Discovery Series ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
