Honda Accord Aerodeck 2.0i LS 5d (1997/P) Owner Review
-
Economy
Value
Lots of car for not a lot of money.
Costs
Drinks fuel if driven hard. Reliable, so doesn't see the garage until services. Don't use Honda dealers as they cost the earth.
-
On the road
Driving
Good handling and visibility.
Performance
More of a cruiser. Comes into its own on the motorway, but has good acceleration, even with 4 people and luggage. Can struggle a little up steep hills.

Not many around. Lovely shape. Doesn't have that 'old man' image that the saloon has.
Comfort
Can go for hours without needing to stop.
