I've owned this gen Accord for over 4 years. Bought it with 58k miles, sold with 140k. I haven't had a single issue with this car, just regular maintenance. 2.0 petrol was not a rocket but it sure was the most reliable car I ever owned. I regret selling it.

@FlyingSpaghettiMonster2000 Год назад

I bought a 2001 type v, 80k sold it at 180k, worse mistake I've ever made was to sell it.

@apollo8017 10 месяцев назад

how is it in terms of interior quality? because I've heard complaints since these cars were built in the crisis era and the quality was probably not the best

@ahogQ 10 месяцев назад

@apollo8017 mine was built in Japan in 2010 and the interior quality was very good. No sqeaks or rattles and felt pretty solid and built to last. Haven't driven other accords so I can only give you my impression.

Many many years ago I had a Range Rover and left for a trip to Europe from Edinburgh. Never got further than Doncaster where the transfer box gave up. The AA returned me home and I borrowed my mother's Honda Accord. Drove all around Europe and back. Great car. And a great mum for giving me her car :)

@person.X. Год назад

I was given one of these as a rental for a road trip in the USA in 2009. I had the idea that Accords were bland and boring. However I really enjoyed that car. It did everything well and like all good cars the longer you drove it the more you liked it. I never thought we would get to a point like now where we look back at cars like this from 2009 and realise with a sinking feeling that that era was a high point of great cars that were relatively affordable.

@Yorkman7 Год назад

With my liking for Japanese reliability I have owned three Accords along with2 Mazdas , 2 Mitsubishis and 2 Suzukis over the last 40 years. You are one of the very few reviewers in the UK who give them the credit they deserve and even if you wouldn’t buy one yourself you give good advice to people needing reliable motoring. I don’t get the British love of European cars which don’t compete on reliability and here in New Zealand they are much pricier than the Japanese equivalent. As I have said previously this is by far the best car review site on you Tube.

@chappy2121 Год назад

People here are badge snobs unfortunately. They'll buy a much worse more problematic car and still complain when it fails. Japanese cars are pretty common though and there's a huge JDM scene. I myself run a 22yo Toyota Crown Athlete VX and its by far the best car I've owned and has never let me down in 3 years

@danr1920 Год назад

I have a USA '14 Accord. Totally different car. Great car, 212,000 miles (340,000 km). 2.4 liter is the smallest engine here. I have a very rare for the U.S., a 6 speed manual. Buttons are good, touch screens are dangerous!

I test drove one of these when they were brand new, just out of interest. They are absolutely brilliant cars. They handled well, and it has the best feeling manual gearbox I've driven. I couldn't afford one at the time, but if I could, I would have seriously considered it.

@7thebill Год назад

Wow, I drove a 2004 diesel Accord exc for years and while its not the exact same car as you have there it was very similar and I’m blown away by how accurate your review is. I spend over a year looking in both the UK and Ireland for a clean low mileage, 13 or 14 reg model, exc spec. Had no joy and had to settle for a Mazda in the end.

@JAY61ish Год назад

Always loved the Accord.. right from 1st Gen.. great looking cars.. And you can get some great engine options ..

@rgfromkl3594 Год назад

My current car is a 2007 (the previous version) Accord Tourer with close to 180k miles that I bought as a temporary car 7 months back. It was between this and an Alfa 159 that I really liked but which had even higher mileage. The old Accord is a bit of a beater but still runs like clockwork and now I have to look hard for a worthy replacement. Find it somehow endearing when driven hard!

@danecowan678 Год назад

Yeah, great car. Slightly left-field as well in the UK. I’d definitely drive around in one, especially the estate in that nice grey colour with silver door handles. I think they look classy without being over the top. Great video, thanks!

@greymark420 Год назад

Just ordered the Civic EHEV in blue, Advance trim. Vey impressed comfortable, great handling and performance. Between 50 to 60mpg and a lot of toys. Currently own a FK8, never had a problem in four years and 46000 miles. Only paid for 2 tyres, rear pads and wiper blades. Always owned Honda reliable with great engineering, the Accord also fits in that category. Oh and buttons are very good which Honda still incorporate for the most important functions, unlike some manufacturers.

My dad has a 2010 2.0 petrol. I loved driving it when I got the chance. I enjoyed it so much that I ended up buying my own Accord (the newer 2015 shape). It will take a lot to get me to part with it. Great cars!

@pauloakes5718 Год назад

I’ve had the civic with the same engine. Bought it in Stockport 4 years ago and it’s not cost me a penny but is well serviced.Also it does 53mpg on a run and 40mpg in town.These engines are the best but think it’s strained in the Accord. Thanks for a great year of auto👍

@rogerwredford 5 месяцев назад

Amen to that. I even transported a canoe INSIDE the estate version once, for my sister as a one off trip down the M6 as it wasn’t worth shelling out for a roof rack. Tardis-like inside, so perfect as a pseudo-van for an amateur landscaper 👍

@Julianpms Год назад

I ran a Type-S diesel saloon with the 6-speed manual for a couple of years: fantastic torque (380Nm) and lovely gearchange, crisp handling and well finished. Narrow power band and dated dashboard design even ten years ago the only downsides. I only sold it as I needed an estate for a house move project.

@Gazmeizster_Wongatron Год назад

I always loved the styling of this generation of Honda Accord. It's not surprising that it could be mistaken for a luxury car - this particular model was marketed as an Acura TSX in the US, so it was designed to compete with the likes of the BMW 3 Series or Lexus IS rather than your average Mondeo or Insignia.

@cobydog456 Год назад

Yep, it's a shame that Acura or even Honda for that matter has little to no presence in the UK considering the success that Lexus has found lately.

@chickyb27 Год назад

Another good honest review Matt. I had a 59 plate 2.2 iDTec EX model for 4 years and it was a bloody good car. Stock sound system was pretty impressive. Would drive around for weeks and rarely encountered another. Honda never really advertised the car which was a shame given the high profile launch ad the previous gen got (the cog advert). Towards the end of my time of ownership the DPF starting giving me problems. First and only time I had a diesel. I think the shape has aged nicely. Always fancied a 2.4 EX tourer but oh so rare.

@AlphaAsample Год назад

Lovely car to drive.

Why is this channel so addictive .... think it's the non shouty hyper edited ,informative but not boring presentation ... and the fact the cars are actual cars you can go out and buy . On another note , I often see cars for sale here in Spain that are RHD and therefore really cheap ...they're usually pretty juicy cars like jags and big mercs that ex pats come over and sell off here and because they're right hand drive nobody wants them so they sell for half nothing , are there LHD cars in the UK that are cheap for the same reason and is it worth all the hassle and cost to actually bring a car over from the UK to Spain if it's LHD always been curious .

@OaksCU1 Год назад

I have one with the 2 litre engine and a manual gearbox. Since it’s not a powerful car that means you can drive it hard without driving fast, something the car takes well to. The engine and gearbox work really well together, and the wishbone suspension up front and multilink in the rear makes it go around corners well indeed. The biggest downside to the car for me is the steering feel though, but my previous car was a BMW E46 with great steering. It’s been reliable except a module in one of the front doors that was faulty that made the power window and mirror electronics not work on that door, and the trunk popper needed to be replaced once. So far I’ve had it for almost 2 years and 30’000 kilometres, and not planning to replace it.

@christophers7070 Год назад

In Australia they were called the 'Accord Euro', to differ it from the regular accord shape. These and the Honda Legend were the only Hondas that were made in Japan, all else (for Aus) comes from a factory in Thailand. We only got the 2.4 petrol. I always thought they were a great car, especially the top spec (sunroof, navi and leather trim). A low mileage example will have much life left on it. If I was in the market for a reliable comfortable car, this would be it.

@rjm64r Год назад

Ended up with a more expensive 5 series which I sold after a year, it had a squeaky dashboard and was costing a fortune in regular maintenance. Currently drive an old avensis banger which I’ve had 4 years and is fucked. I keep looking at they civic you have in stock for just over 4 grand.

We get that vehicle in America too. Just without a diesel option. And here, that model is an Acura TL. We do get _a_ Honda Accord. Just a slightly bigger and different vehicle with a much softer suspension. But thankfully with the same level of Honda reliability. Unfortunately Matt, my fellow Americans also prefer Crossovers. Yup, no imagination. Just an appliance to be used as such. Though ironically when folks on this side of the ocean hit hard times, they cut back on Laundromat visits; but not on Car Wash visits. Found that out from a Business man who owns both types of businesses .

I love these cars, my previous car was a 2002 Honda Accord and I had that for 13 years. I would have kept that one as well if I had the space for two cars.
