I have dithered on upgrading my car for the last few years mainly due to being unable to decide between a diesel and a petrol model. My 12 year old primera has about 76K miles on the clock but I need a change.
Ihave looked at different models but I have been quite taken with a diesel accord (2.2 ltr) with approx 85k miles.

My query is in 2 parts:
1: the car has good mileage on it already so would lowering the annual mileage affect it much going forward?
2: the service interval shows that it would require drive belts to be replaced at 90K, would this be the timing belt or are there others which require replacing

Thanks

There's very few of the petrol model around at all, almost all diesels. If your going to keep it for a number of years I wouldn't worry about the mileage.
