I would agree with this. Back in 2004 i needed a car quick, i brought a Toyota with 120,000 on the clock, it was cheap and supposed to be temporary....7 years later and 185,000 on the clock it was still going and had just cost me for normal wear and tear items.
I then brought an A class Merc...
Honda's are good cars. Bit juicy by today's standards. Good mileage for the year. Pricey for year, check out price by looking in Parkers Guide, i think it is overpriced.
