1999 Honda CR-V ES review from UK and Ireland
"Perfect people-carrier alternative"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing!
Although we have only had it for a year (15000 miles), it hasn't yet missed a beat, which is a relief because Honda service is not cheap.
Interior has taken some serious abuse from child seats and children, but appears to be bullet proof.
General comments?
Comfortable and roomy, but I find it a little under-powered and noisy.
It would have been nice to have a large V6 or even a turbo-diesel to select from.
This has been the perfect family car, and the modest boot can swallow a huge amount of prams and toys when required, which is most of the time!
