Honda Accord Saloon (2003 - 2008) 2.0 i-VTEC Executive 4d Auto (2003/03) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

Not a lot.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

Looks nice.

Would you buy this car again and why?

No, for several reasons: 1 My children felt sick in the back. Not surprising really because of the low down seats, small windows and cramped position. 2 Poor overall visibility 3 Why pay for options I don't need like heated mirrors, heated seats, poor quality leather ?

What are you likely to buy next?

Something more practical

Type of dealer you bought from?

Franchise

Did you buy this car new?

Yes

What price did you pay?

£18,000

When did you buy the car?

March 2003

Did you get a good deal and why?

Fairly good deal

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Looked good

What was the dealer like?

Sound

What's it like to drive?

You have to give it lots of revs because it is a heavy car.

What's it like to park?

This is the most difficult car to park I have ever owned. Visibility is poor and the bulges on the front and back wings are a nightmare.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Yes, I used the radio with the engine switched off. The battery went dead and I had to call the AA. The AA man said that the battery in a modern car is barely big enough to do the job ! Rain sensitive wipers are useless.

What's most practical about your car?

This is not a practical car. When the front seats are pushed back (as they usually are), there is hardly any room for the back seat passengers.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Good stereo.
