1999 Honda Legend 3.5

Summary:

Very comfortable

Faults:

The rear brake pads have been replaced, which I was expecting to do anyway. Nothing else.

General Comments:

A very comfortable car with adequate performance from the 3.5 litre engine which is very smooth and refined.

This car is all about comfort. With electrically adjustable heated leather seats, climate control, cruise control and electric windows/sunroof, it wants for nothing.

If you are looking for economy, then buy something else as the petrol costs are very high (I estimate approximately 20mpg). Similarly, if you are looking for a sporting feel to the car, you would be better buying a BMW as the handling is not the greatest. But, if you are looking for a very comfortable saloon that feels special every time you get behind the steering wheel, then the Legend fits the bill. When you compare it with a similarly aged Mercedes, it is a bargain.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
