1996 Honda Accord S review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Jan 98 I kerbed the car between 15-20 mph, sliding into the kerb on black ice. No damage was suffered to the wheel, tyre or hubcap, BUT the front subframe was twisted and the bearing on the wheel was shot to crap, total cost to insurance company nearly 1000 UK pounds!!
General comments?
Apparently there is a possible manufacturing flaw in the front subframe of the mk5. Other than that it's a lovely car and I can't wait to sell it!!
