This is one of the less appealing aspects of buying second hand. However, it goes without saying that it gives rise to different methods and tactics: Some sellers will disguise a car that's been in an accident under a fresh coat of paint, tamper with the odometer or conceal theft. Second Hand - Not Second Bestĭid you know that considerably more used cars are sold than new cars? We think this second-hand system is nothing short of fantastic. We've uncovered irreparable damage several times in the past, but other times our vehicle history checks draw a blank - and sometimes that's actually a good thing. The information we provide relates solely to the vehicle, its odometer reading, any accidents that have been covered up, where the vehicle comes from and much more - it never gets personal. Let's be clear: Although we strive to find every detail of a vehicle's life so far, we are focused only on the vehicle's history, and do not collect any information on previous owners.

Not bad for $1800 (price I paid plus the work done) I love this car, sure it's older and the suspension isn't up to par anymore, but it still tracks beautifully and runs great. The passenger side mirror doesn't work, but that's an easy fix.Īlso, depending on the incline I park at, the sunroof will leak in heavy rain. New muffler (my fault bottomed out in the snow and ripped it off). Since owning it I've had to replace the brakes all the way around. Thanks Honda also for designing such a good car. Have driven it all day long, but it still didn't overheat. The cabin size inside is enough for me and my wife in the front and the back with three kids. People don't believe it's already 26 years of age. Previous car was a Civic Wonder 1985 owned by my father - another reliable and good car.įirst time I drove the car, it felt comfortable. Plan to service the power steering in the next year. In the second year, serviced carburetor, changed fuel filter and cleaned the gas tank, and after that the car was running more smoothly/powerfully. was costly ($170), but the air con is still not too cold. Servicing A/C compressor, pipe, clean evaporator, etc. In the first year, the fuel pump need to be changed, because the engine wouldn't start. The name here in Indonesia was the Honda Accord Prestige (1986-1989).įirst time after buying I needed to change the timing belt, oil and other belt for the maintenance record.
