What's the FR-V like?

What are your views on a 2008 Honda FR-V 1.8 i-VTEC ES?

Answered by Honest John

Ugly, but effective. Passenger airbag not switchable, but babies can ride in a rear-facing carrier fixed to the centre front seat that can be slid back. The chain cam 1.8 succeeded the belt cam 1.7. The 1.8 was also available with a torque converter autobox.
