2001 Honda Accord SE review from UK and Ireland
"A reliable if somewhat dull family saloon car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Lambda (Oxygen) sensor in exhaust failed showing warning light on dashboard.
General comments?
This car is a good all-round family saloon car.
Well made.
Generally reliable.
Quiet.
Fairly economical (33mpg).
Performance, however, sucks. It is slow considering it is supposed to develop 138BHP...I'm still trying to find the extra 100BHP... I still have my Xantia 2.0 16v which will comfortably out accelerate it.
The cabin is tidy and spacious if somewhat plasticky.
