CR-V sales in the UK are going quite well this year. With the addition of a diesel engine, they expect an even better reception. But knowing how ... umm... quirky the UK can be, would the Element do well?

I think the Element will do well in UK..there are so many odd shaped cars in Europe anyways and the Element does not look bad at all...

I think it might be a bit too ugly for us conservative brits :lol:
Seriously though, I doubt that Honda would offer it in the UK as it might take away some of the CRV buyers rather that tempt new Honda owners.
But, you never know.

I think it might do well as a lorrie for light duty contractors and such. Especially if they gave it the 2.2L diesel. But it wouldn't serve very well as personal transport. Too big with too much of a petrol habit.

I think they will stick a K20 in the E for Europe release...I'm surprised to find that so many people dislike the E...I've seen Daihatsu's that are way uglier
