Honda Accord Saloon 2.0i LS 4d (1996/N) Owner Review
-
Economy
Value
Rover sister - I'm not sure the Honda badge demands the high price difference but certainly better than a Vauxhall.
Costs
Servicing by dealer is expensive - so are the parts! Find Honda specialist.

Driving
Nice car to drive and controls are easy to hand. Likes to be driven hard.
Performance
Good acceleration but raucous at high revs which spoils the comfort.

Living with it
Reliability
Apart from servicing costs, no other expense incurred.
Image
Honda appeals to most but the shape of this model is not as sharp as it could have been - perhaps the Rover connection is responsible!
Comfort
I found it difficult to get in and out of the driver's seat without pushing the seat fully back first. Rear seat passengers found it very comfortable.
