1999 Honda CR-V review from UK and Ireland
"Fantastic - buy one"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Absolutely nothing major whatsoever. Parking bulbs have gone - tricky to replace yourself.
General comments?
This car is a joy on long journeys. I don't have cruise, but the auto box is so well geared and the gas pedal is so nicely weighted that you don't miss is.
I was shocked when the Honda dealer offered a 1 year warranty on a 5 year old car. It is completely reliable.
It states in the manual that the vehicle is not designed for trail blazing, but I've had it in a few muddy fields and it was quite nimble footed.
The cargo area is huge with the rear seats folded, I have fitted lawn mowers, motorbikes and barrels in mine no problem. The carpets are easy to keep clean too.
