Honda Accord 2.2 i-DTEC

The 2010 Accord is a big leap forward from the previous model in which i travelled a happy 150,000 trouble free miles.

The new model is a thorough delight. Engine,gearbox and seats are a pleasure USB dock very handy.

My Accord is plagued by a noisy cabin with wind noise coming through the door or window seals. The garage have reported this back to Honda, hopefully a repair will be affected.

Still i am very happy with the car, apart from being on the motorway on a wet day when the noise is at its worst

This is my second Honda Accord.I previously owned a tourer.

i BOUGHT IT BECAUSE THE FIRST ONE WAS EXCELLENT!

I own the 4 door IDTEC ES GT Model.

It currently has 20,000 miles trouble free.

The ride is firmer than my old tourer, the fuel economy is excellent and regularly get 45mpg + on commute up and down the motorway.

I would prefer a more comfortable package for the interior, and I miss the seat warmers, rear windscreen wiper and auto-dip mirror that my old tourer had as standard.

It is very comfortable even without the extra goodies and a drive from Berlin to London was achieved in comfort even at high speed on the autobahn.

The satnav is excellent though I prefer the old touch screen format the current Kbob - driven detup seems slower than previous. However the resyled interior with the recessed screen makes this difficult I guess!

I like the usb connector for my music - never again will I have to fish under the seat for that lost CD. And the feature to download the address book from your telephone is good as well. Shame it doesn't work with a blackberry!

As usual service from Honda outlets is excellent , and is no small part in me choosing another Honda.

I am more than happy with this car, but i will post another update at 50,000 miles and advise if still ok!
