Title: Honda Civic looks like Omega?
Post by: geoffr70 on 27 August 2010, 21:43:01

Hello, on first thought this sounds stupid; but I have seen a Honda Civic that looks like an Omega on first glance or from a distance. Not being familiar with Hondas I don't know what type it is, but it's the 4 door saloon, of a similar age to the Omega. It's roughly Mondeo size. What does anyone else think? I'd try and get photo's up to show you which one I mean but I'm too thick for that.

Same age would be the 6th Gen Civic.

And, no.  I dont think it looks like the Omega  :-/

The Honda Accord does, the front grill looks quite similiar. I know another Omega driver has also said to me it looks similiar from a distance aswell.
The Civic is a small hatch, not a saloon.

Here's the Accord;

Close up it's nothing like an Omega, but from a distance it does look like one.

Civic was available in a saloon too.  Not as common though.

I must admit i've always thought whichever Honda it is looks like a facelift Mig from the front, especially in silver but i kept it too myself.
