Indeed, but as Jon says, all posted by Eric. Also, it's soon to be made law that you must lower your Accord and lower it on coil overs :lol: . Lowering springs won't cut it. Isn't that right Eric .
That's madness. With my town driving i always get approx 400miles from 55 liters! 2.0 auto-Rich- said:I just filled up and got 21mpg from my auto doing 85% town driving, which is reasonable I think. That was 263 miles to 57 litres.
You ain't gonna get much better driving a 2.4 auto around town I was getting slightly more out of my 1.8 Corolla, which was a manual. I have winter tyres on as well, which will knock a few mpg off. It should improve in the warmer months.leighmcgough said:I dont think I could live with only 260 out of a tank...
They both have 190bhp, but was the corolla a lot faster then the Accord?-Rich- said:The Corolla I had was the T Sport version, redlined at 8200 rpm and it was a beast, very fast and took alot of people by surprise! It just wasn't big enough for when we go away though, plus the missus hated sitting in it and when on the motorway the rpms were at 4k when doing 70mph so was abit noisey. I may have lost some power with the Accord but it's a much more refined motor
0-60 time was rapid, easily 6 seconds, some have done less at Santa Pod, it depends if you get the gear change spot on. They have the same bhp but the Corolla weighs 1/3 less than the Accord so the advantage is in the weight loss. Most of the power was after 6200 rpm so you had to rev the nuts off it to make it shift so not really a relaxing car to drive!Nasty1984 said:They both have 190bhp, but was the corolla a lot faster then the Accord?

What kind of driving is this and I ***ume manual?Plasma said:Just filled up my 2.4 type S Tourer - 390 miles.
What is your annual mileage? I do 3-5k miles so going LPG isn't worth it but I might consider it if I ever have to commute further than I do. I really love the Accord and I've spent a few £££ servicing it and replacing a few parts, including the new exhaust I've just ordered so want to keep it as long as possible.nas80 said:I get 230 miles from 28 pounds worth of LPG (40 litres) I have a 2.4 manual - I don't drive with a mind to be economical. I have done 20k since the the LPG conversion so I think I have recouped the 1k It cost me. It would have cost a grand extra to buy a diesel version of my accord exec anyway.
