Just an update since my last post back in 2017
I still have the Accord and its now passed 260,000 miles last week.
Recent repairs include
-New Upper control arm (driver side) worn bush)
-Upper power steering hose leak (remove and replace) - common issue on our cars
-Lower power steering cooler (rusted and perished)
Thats it.
Still has the original turbo/exhaust/clutch/DMF/timing chain/Wheel bearings
Keep on trucking!
Due to the ULEZ expansion next year in Aug 2023 the Accord may have to go.
Such a shame as its still a great car to drive and can easily achieve 60mpg. (around 70 mpg in the summer months)
It has never let me down and always starts every morning to go to work.
I have no idea what to replace it when the times comes that is ULEZ complaint and can do similar MPG.
Lexus IS300h perhaps? So expensive though

My Type S Tourer is on 253,000 and still going strong! Had her on a track recently!
Surely Honda already have something up their sleeve that is ULEZ compliant, though it may not be in these waters quite yet.
