1 Honda Accord
It may not appear to be anything special. But when it comes to being extremely well screwed together, this humble Honda tops the hill. The make’s long held a reputation for making dependable cars and here it has put everything it knows into its midsize saloon and estate. The engines and gearboxes are particularly long running, capable of reaching six-figure mileages without needing more than regular oil and filter changes. The cabins are made to last, too. And, if you’re lucky enough to buy a current model like ours here, you’ll pick something that’s fine to drive. In developing this car, Honda used BMW’s 3-series as a benchmark and the success of this tactic shows in the Accord’s deft steering and honed ride. It’s also exceptionally comfortable and very well equipped
