Honda Accord (1994-98) Reviews

I owned a 1990 Honda Accord a couple of cars ago so this seemed to be the natural progression. The British-built '95 car isn't as well built or reliable as the previous Japanese one but it's still far superior to any of its rivals (Mondeo, Vectra, Cavalier etc.) Speaking of reliability it's had a few problems, the electric window switch ...  Read the complete review
