The HONDA ACCORD (2011-15) 4DR SALOON 2.2 I-DTEC DPF 180 EU5 TYPE S 6SPD is a spacious, four-door family saloon, sitting in the UK’s larger family and entry-level executive-car market. Its Type S trim gives the understated Accord a sportier look, while the strong diesel engine and six-speed manual suit longer journeys. It offers a more traditional alternative to SUVs and hatchbacks. mycarcheck.com recorded 57 look-ups across 28 VINs, a useful snapshot rather than a reliability verdict. Average recorded mileage was 87,000, with annual use around 8,000 miles and about two previous keepers. Average private-sale valuation: £6,500. That mix makes this Accord well suited to commuters, couples and families needing a comfortable, composed car for motorway miles and everyday errands and weekend trips. Against rivals such as the Ford Mondeo and Volkswagen Passat, it stands out for Honda’s reputation for dependable engineering and its rarer, more engaging Type S character.
