Honda Civic
On paper at least, the Honda Civic has always been the thinking person’s hatchback in South Africa, parking itself right in the crosshairs of the Volkswagen Golf, Toyota Corolla, and Mazda3. Yet, if you’re browsing local listings today, it’s slim pickings — just five used Civics up for grabs, priced from R69,500 to R239,500, with a sweet spot sitting around R118,500. That’s a massive gap for such a tiny pool, which should set off your “buyer beware” radar about overall condition and spec. Every one of these cars comes with the tried-and-tested 1.8-litre i-VTEC petrol engine, and you’ll find manual, automatic, or the quirky semi-auto transmissions, depending on your luck. There’s no new stock, and that matters, because if you want a Civic in 2024, you’re strictly shopping second-hand. The two 1.8 Elegance CVTs are the most expensive at R205,900 and R239,500, which tells you they’re likely the best-kept cars in the bunch. Down at R69,500, the 1.8 EXi automatic is honest about its age and mileage — these are cars nudging 165,000 km, so you can expect well-worn seats and the odd rattle over Joburg potholes. Still, the i-VTEC is what the Civic should have been from the start: smooth, eager, and more rewarding than any Corolla of its vintage. Cabin materials have aged surprisingly well, especially compared to other Japanese options of the era. Just don’t fool yourself — you’re not buying a museum piece, you’re buying a car that’s seen its fair share of Gauteng commutes. If you pack smart and budget for TLC, there’s still value to be had.
