General Comments
I owned a 1.8i VTEC Accord for 6 years and 50,000 miles. It turned out to be an excellent family car. Plenty of room for cases, pushchairs, kids etc. The interior trim always cleaned up well after much abuse! Had no problems with it. Little bit heavy on fuel and front tyres. Maybe that was just the way I drove it because it was a pleasure to drive. First sign of trouble was brake pipe corrosion. (£200 repair). If I was buying another I would look for a good service history. Solid car.
