Keen drivers wanting a healthy bang for their buck have for years sought solace in Type R Hondas. If any of them can lay claim to being the sweet spot, it’s the Accord Type R
A facelift in 2001 brought in a minor nose job, black tailpipes and some strengthening of the gearbox internals, and in 2003 the Accord Type R left the stage for good.
Find a good one now – an admittedly difficult task, and one probably getting more difficult by the day – and you’ll have a car that can still give you more sheer driving pleasure than a bucketload of present-day 300bhp hot hatches. Buy carefully, then, and enjoy at leisure.“The hot 2.2 offers strong, usable acceleration from as low as 2000rpm. Power then swells progressively to 5500rpm, after which it explodes in the usual VTEC style towards 7200rpm.
“Mine has been exceptionally reliable and sails through MOTs. There’s no rust. I’ve had to replace the two front springs, which were cracked, and the front ball joints, the D-bushes and the drop links in both front arms.”It should prove reliable, even with quite substantial mileage on it. The engine can sound rattly from cold so let it warm through until smooth, listening for noises from the bottom end . Stevenson recommends fresh oil every 3000 miles.
