    nice looking car but I guess the 2 litre petrol engine would be thirsty ?

    It's actually up wrong on Carzone, and is a 2.0.

    OP - what do you need to know? It's the same as my car (year newer and different colour though).

    Half Leather (may not be actual leather, not sure), half Velour seats (very comfy). Dual Zone Climate Control, Cruise Control, Steering wheel controls for the radio, Electric Windows all round, remote central locking, armrest with large storage compartment, large storage compartment in the dash, Single CD player.

    Fairly large boot (but it's no Octavia), decent leg room in the back.

    The engine is one of the best 2.0 unit's around. Put over 60,000km on mine and only replaced bulbs and had it serviced (every 20,000km). Think it's 154bhp - it's not a rocket, but it's no slouch either. Will do 120km/h in 2nd gear if the mood takes you, or will potter around at 50km/h in 5th.

    Mainly motorway driving I can get 750 + km from the 55 litre tank of Petrol.

    Downsides - wheels are too small for car and look a bit lost. No front fog lights for the 2 days a year the fog is bad enough to warrant them. Doesn't fill me with joy every time I get in, but I don't hate it and it's highly unlikely to let you down.

    Looks pretty good value for a low mileage Accord.

    Any further questions, just post.

    A little o/t but personally I think this one is better value:

    http://www.driving.ie/usedcars/index.cfm?fuseaction=car&carID=201101200775439

    It's the facelifted model where the Type S replaced the Sport, a year younger, ok mileage is higher but the 2.0 litre Accord engine is only broken in at that mileage so that would not concern me. Looks are subjective but I think the larger 17" wheels fill the arches alot better than the 15/16" on the Sport and the subtle Type S body kit sets it apart.

    Just my 2c.
