I have decided to lease a 1.4 i-shift in January, but the wife mentions to
me last night that she was speaking to "Someone who knows about cars" and
they said there are reports of problems with this model!

I've looked all over on the net, and can only find reviews on the 1.8 etc,
and they all seem to be good!!!

Am I missing something or is this KNOW IT ALL full of it?

Considering that my current 1.4 civic (automatic) has always been fine for
me (forgetting the thing is about to die now after a lot of miles and abuse)
I am now starting to have that inner worry of..... Have I done the right or
wrong thing here!!!
