Hi all,

Am looking at buying a car in Thailand at a modest budget (around £6k GBP) and the top contenders are the following:

- 2006 on CRV 2.0 or 2.4
- 2007 on Accord 2.4
- Wildcard 2003 on Accord 3.0 v6

It will probably be one of the first two listed, although I'd like the extra power of the V6 so not totally decided yet.

If anyone has some useful input of these models feel free to chime in. I guess they will be much the same reliability wise, and the trade off is practicality of the CRV vs. a bit of luxury in the Accord?

I'll be doing test drives when I'm over there in a couple of weeks but just doing a bit of preliminary research. A Camry is also an option but they seem to be higher priced vs the Honda.

Thanks!

Is the Accord the Euro spec one which is the same as the Acura TSX in the USA?

Or the USA Accord?
