    HI ALL.
    Friend of mine considering this for the ever expanding family. http://cars.donedeal.ie/for-sale/cars/5024213
    Always reckoned I knew a bit about cars but had to do Google it when they told me. Never heard of the model.
    They'll be trading in a 00 Golf, no idea how much they're gonna get for it. Just wondering if anyone knows anything at all bout these regarding reliability, running costs, safety etc..

    Regards

    HB

    O_O

    My eyes! My poor eyes! I can easily see why neither you nor I ever heard of this...ehm...car, until now. I suspect it never sold outside Japan and, in all honesty, it looks more like a Ford Transit or a Fiat Ducato than a car.

    I have obviously no idea about how the car goes / costs et cetera, but the sheer rarity of the vehicle would make me go for something different, if they really need a people carrier - there's no shortage of better known 7-seaters.

    Little note just for fun, and an addition to the "cars with names that sound absurd in other languages": Mobilio means "furniture" in Italian.

    Now, imagine somebody talking about an "Honda Mobilio" and then this square, car-converted van pulls up... :):):)

    Would a more conventional Honda Stream do the same thing? My main concern would be trying to source spare parts for one.
