A week ago, I became the proud owner of a brand new Honda Civic Advance vehicle. The dealership who handled the sale were exceptional, so this review is not related to the buying experience, but the vehicle itself.I was disappointed to learn that Honda had scrimped on several functions in the car, which having spent almost £40k, you would think would be included as standard such as:Front passenger seat - no height adjustment. Maybe Honda thinks all UK passengers are 6ft tall, hence no need for seat height adjustment?Vehicle does not lock automatically when walking away - this function is available in USA for the Civic, so why not in the UK?Vehicle does not automatically lock all doors when driving off - - this function is available in USA for the Civic, so why not in the UK?Vehicle warns you of changes in road speed limit, but does not warn you of any upcoming speed camerasNo memory seats for up to 2No driversNo wireless Android Auto - although I understand this function is available on this model and can only be switched on via hidden settings not accessible to the general user (why?)The above, in my opinion, are some of the main features which Honda should have incorporated as standard for a vehicle of this cost, with the option of either turning the functions on or off left with the user.It's not a question of UK regulations not allowing the above to be incorporated in a vehicle (my previous cheaper vehicle, Mazda 6, had all of the above included as standard), but I think it's Honda being greedy and placing profits over quality/quantity.What's more irritating is that, most (if not all) of the above functions come as standard for the US market for the same make/model of vehicle - why????
