but if compared to Honda HK, for the service/parts apple to apple, they cost even more,
DCHR Motas charge an eyeball for anything, do you still use them?
my wife had a stream some time ago and they changed a fuel filter in 6k mileage???
as i remember the front shocks broke in the 1st month, auto box had a mind of its own etc,.
so much for jap reliability.
I still have 1 coupon left after that I will not go to them.
for a oil and oil filter change they charge me about $1400. :thumbsdown:
wow you had bad luck with your stream
kcleung like the stream but I never like it.
My touch wood setpwgn is very good

1400 for a compulsory oil change to validate/continue the warranty right?
what a con.
r motas have messed up their product mix, why choose the ugliest civic and not the UK civic??i mean why have crap sales figures for the usual "best seller" the civic, there are more C class and E90 then civics right??
who wants to buy an acura??? the stream is their best seller, but the best cars are the Accord and Stepwagon(bargain).
but still no match for BMW

the back looks OK from the photo.
but like you say it no way near to the 7er for leg space.
I dont like the E saloon, too many bits not a clean design like the F10 renders
I like the new E coupe

For it's class, stream is great value and good compromise but for me, it's neither here or there.

stream is just other estate car with 2 seat lobed in the back which even kid find it hard to get in.
BMW should put other 2 seat in the real of 3er and 5er Touring cars just like the X5
