  , "Archie" ps - the other niggle, in case anyone is wondering, is that the traffic announcements on the radio very rarely kick in, whereas in other cars, at the same time of day (on the M25 in the rushhour) the announcements never stop. Should Honda also be able to fix this?

  Systems Fault" That was it - I could not start the car, although I could sit and listen to the radio or even have the fan switched on, so I presume it was the immobiliser kicking in. The car seemed fine during the week when it was cold outside, even freezing, it was only when the car had sat in the damp

  place to reach! They have repeated the problem with the previous Radio where you do not appear to be able to curtail a TP announcement easily. I do not like the cruise control lever moving with the steering wheel (as before). At least there is an indication that it has set now but it still turns off
