Honda Prelude 2.3 4WS 2d (1994/L) Owner Review

Economy
Value
Where else could you get ABS, P/S, elecs, cruise, airbags and style, despite being 10 years old, for under £2k?
Costs
Little thirsty if driven hard. Servicing very expensive. Brakes approx £50 for new discs and pads.

Driving
Comfortable, low driving position, handle great though brakes tend to overheat and fade very quickly.

Lovely sounding engine, manual gearbox very smooth and great midrange punch.
