Autocar also had a P reg Civic Hondamatic which they used as a long term test car in 1976, they used it to drive from London to Colchester every Friday to deliver the magazine proof to the printers, they rated the car highly stating that it was better than a Mini but a but bouncy. I have the magazine in the garage somewhere.
CAR magazine also tested this Civic too back in 1975 against the Ford Escort..
