2012 Honda Accord i-DTEC EX 2.2 diesel
Summary:
A fine executive saloon
Faults:
Used dealer replaced DPF (common diesel fault) as the light came on during test drive! The car had low miles for its age and was otherwise in good order, so I bought it with peace of mind and warranty.
General Comments:
Got a great deal on this 2012 Accord in blue. Very nice looking car.
EX model has plenty of extras, very nice interior. The car is fun to drive, plenty of power. Not quite as economical as I expected (only managed 46 mpg so far, claimed average is 52) but I am enjoying driving it soo much I probably accelerate a bit too enthusiastically!
Plan to have it a long time if it proves reliable, so far so good.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

They are good cars; the Accord is still holding value well even at over ten years old; an equivalent Vauxhall Insignia or Ford Mondeo is cheaper, but the Honda Accord is the better car and worth the extra in my opinion.
