It's very tempting, I've never seen a genuine car in that condition. Mechanically it should be fine for 3-4 years but exterior wise... It's a different story!
I've no doubt it would, but it won't be changing my mind on economy..... unfortunately!
Like I said at 20k miles a year I can't afford to run a petrol engine.
I doubt many would agree with that statement of having to cover 200k+. I drive 20k miles a year, and comparing the petrol and diesel accord I'd save about 1300 euros a year running a diesel model. I plan to hold onto this car for two years anyway so that's over 2500. Quite a big saving and would...
Just want to get some opinions on what you'd do in this situation... I've managed to find a little gem in the form of a diesel Accord exec with only 40k miles and a full Honda service history. The VSA module has been replaced and all the history has been verified by the dealer. The car is in...
Fairly expensive for a 02 car, I know it has the extra power and all but it's cut back in other ways. The EX has a much better spec and can be had for a lot less, at the expense of BHP of course.
Seems hard to find a genuine euro r, a lot of them have been tarted up with lips, kits and cut springs probably :) Are there any mods for the 2litre engine to bring up the figures of the standard EX or type s?
So 65 litres x 1.55 a litre is €100. Averaging 450 miles a tank that's 22cent a mile. Not bad going for a 2litre... Considering the joys of driving a car like that :) funnily enough I've already got plans in mind for it! Damn this site :D
Hmmm good point! What are realistic figures for a 2.4 and 2.0 type s? I was talking to a local Honda dealer and he said that one of his customers reported 450 miles to the tank in a '07 2 litre... Is that possible or just dealer talk? :)
Really? :o I checked the current engine size based bands and beside that it showed the new rate of about 300 if I remember correctly! Never crossed my mind that it might be more?
Something like this is what I mean > http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201306147278586/sort/default/usedcars/fuel-type/petrol/maximum-age/up_to_5_years_old/model/accord/make/honda/onesearchad/used/onesearchad/nearlynew/onesearchad/new/postcode/m111bb/page/1/radius/1501?logcode=p

Sorry if I've confused anyone but I'm actually looking for the 7th gen body shape with a 08 reg. :) there seems to be a few with the older body on 08 plates, there's something about the new model that's just not as pleasant to look at IMO, of course.
I'm just looking for a 08 plate car because...
Hey all, sadly lost touch with the site since I sold the Accord back in November. Since then I've had a '06 Golf GTi and currently driving a '04 A4 TDi but I'm hoping to sell it pretty soon and move back to the Honda family again :lol: I've been looking around at a few cars and I've decided...
