I have ordered a crv luxury … went for a drive in a base model. it was fine for me, but my husband thought it holds back on power [but since i only drive at the speed limit, live in sydney, doubt the car will ever leave the sydney metro area - it will more than do for me, bubs and the dog!]. we tried V6 ford escape and power wasn’t much better than crv.

my friend bought a captiva – and i have to say i am pretty impressed. for the same amount I paid for my car, they got V6, 7 seats, dvd, every safety feature that the crv has, and more! I think the captiva bounces you around a little more than the crv, but if you are not particular paying attention to it, you don’t notice it. The husband is 6 ft and says he can’t get comfortable, and complains about lack of power but the wife loves it (and its her car].

Just about every reviewer complains about cr-v’s lack of power – i hope it is not as bad as they make out!

I guess then its looks for you in the end! I would go Honda over the Captiva from that write up I just read.

Honda have been making CRVs for over 10 years now unlike Holdens Captiva.

Not a fan of the CX-7… It looks okay but its not my sort of car, reminds me of a tarago or van! :)

Hi Bavarian Missile,

I’m a chick and I have researched and researched and defintely driven the Honda CR-V for a test drive! Who would buy a car without driving it first?!?!?!

I’m constantly looking out for reviews on the Honda CR-V and the Holden Captiva LX as I don’t know which one to buy!

Chicks and cars they have such a broad range of requirements when looking for a car most of the time! “GEE I LIKE THE COLOUR ,CAN I PICK THE COLOUR OF THE INTERIOR” Come on girls pickup a mag and read something on what your buyin ,and for the chick earlier in the week that bought a Mazda 2 without driving it…………. why bother coming to this site you clearly have no requirements to meet in a car.

No manual, no thanks!

Whats with the ugly grille? Overall its looks rank inside and out. But the engine seems pretty good (166bhp) that would be about 127kw from a 2.4ltr engine. Not sure what the fuel ADR figure is. According to drive, this version does handle very well.

Im not a fan of the dash layout… with the gear stick integrated into it. I believe the Jazz has something similar… looks weird to me and the gap between it and the centreconsole looks like wasted storage space.
