Ever since the Japanese...

Ever since the Japanese maker took the wraps off the striking Civic Concept at the Geneva Motor Show in March, excitement about the car"s impending launch has been building. Many thought Honda would never put such a daring-looking model into production, but when the official pictures were released in August, barely a detail had changed.

Bosses wanted to mount a giant, rotating, illuminated version of the company logo, measuring 5.85 metres, on top of the main cone-shaped building at the historic site of Mercedes-Benz World in Brooklands, Surrey. However, Elmbridge District Council has refused planning permission, stating it would be "visually intrusive in an area of special advertising control" and "detract from the views of the ancient monument".

Brit James Thompson scored a memorable debut win for Honda in the World Touring Car Championship at Imola, Italy. The ex-BTCC champ scorched from fifth on the grid to finish ahead of the BMW of Jorg Muller and Chevroletň€™s Rob Huff in the dayň€™s second outing. This was the highlight of a good weekend for the Japanese squad, after Thompson took third place in the opening race, behind the SEATs of Rickard Rydell and eventual winner Yvan Muller, who now has a 12-point lead in the standings.

A delighted Thompson said afterwards: ň€śI am very proud to be the first person to win for Honda. I was grinning like a Cheshire cat as I went over the line.ň€ť The teams now move to Japan on 26 October for the penultimate round of the championship.
