2011 Honda Accord i-VTEC EX Euro 2.0 petrol
Summary:
Wish it was still available
Faults:
Really nothing beyond the expected wear and tear. There was an ABS sensor replaced, and the engine has a very small oil leak coming from somewhere, but no significant loss or any effect on daily use.
Exterior of the car looks as good as new. Inside the leather is starting to wear, but this is acceptable I think at 13 years old with nearly 120K mileage on it.
General Comments:
Love it! Dark blue Accord 2011, very sharp looking car! Still has the original Honda 5 spoke alloy wheels, no modifications to this car.
Gorgeous car inside as well, seats are the best I have sat in. Black leather and they hug you as you drive. All electric features expected of the time are on this model.
Driving is fun and visibility is good, I love being in this car. If I am being really picky - the center console is a bit of a mess of small buttons, but no big deal once you are used to it.
2.0 petrol engine has plenty of punch, never struggles. Average MPG of around 36, not bad. I have heard the diesels are best avoided, they can be problematic, but this is an old school petrol engine that is simple to maintain and rarely gives trouble.
I believe Honda stopped making these for the UK market a while ago. Shame really, I'd definitely buy another! I'll just have to hang onto this one forever, or upgrade to a 2015 Accord with lower mileage, which was the last year they were available here in UK I believe.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Must be a good car, the Accord is still very expensive to buy used, even at 10 years old or more. But the prices of used cars have went up in general over the last couple of years.
