Looking to buy an 08-15 Accord Tourer Ex with all the bits on but I've found less than a handful of cars available. .
Were they really this rare or does no one want to part with them? I was all set on an A4 Avant but then I reckon the Accord has the better interior.

I've seen one in a dealer 11 plate with 86k at £8k but I'm not sure if it's over priced.

Well I bought one. Quality cabin, comfortable and refined. The sunroof is a bonus! Boot could be bigger as the suspension struts get in the way. Will be interesting to see what MPG this achieves

I've owned mine for 7 months now, its a good car. Comfortable, genuine 45-50mpg and most of my journeys are 40 miles +. Its great on the motorway.

Clutch pedal squeaks a bit and seems a bit slow to lift when just starting out in cold weather but seems to sort itself out after a few miles.

I have a love/hate relationship with mine. Great car, very comfy, loads of toys, pulls well and in 12 months of ownership its only cost me a new battery. I might address the slightly saggy driver seat bolster as apart from that, its pretty much immaculate. Almost 100k and going strong.

On the other hands, i'm middle 30s and driving a car which seems to be viewed by most as for the over 60s! I did turn down a similar vintage A4 S-line in red for this due to what I felt was a better driving position, better stereo and a lighter cabin (the sunroof and light headlining make a big difference).

I'll end up keeping it for another 18 months at least I should suspect.
