This is our hearty old Honda Accord sedan. We bought it as a CPO vehicle in September, 2001 and drove it from Kentucky to Texas. Our daughter used it to go off to college and it's been a faithful vehicle. The only persistent flaw was an odometer that stopped working properly over a year ago. We had it replaced twice at the local Honda dealer, but they don't make new ones and the ones the dealership installed didn't work. The odometer reading says 134, 129 miles, but I think it's actually closer to 200k My son-in-law repaired the odometer in August of this year and calibrated it with GPS to within 4mph. We brought it home. Shortly thereafter my wife rear-ended someone and now, it's, well driveable, but in need of serious repair. Mechanical Damage: It has some damage to the front end (pulls to the left) and has a cracked windshield, blown airbags, and the front bumper has now been damaged by the tow truck. Cosmetics: The original Heather Mist Metallic Paint has been scorched by the Texas sun, and the interior needs a good cleaning; stained carpet and some stains on the cloth seats. What's in good shape. The engine and transmission, all interior electronics, including that working odometer, good tires, power door locks, windows, mirrors, and AC. And my son-in-law installed a Pioneer head unit that comes with a remote control. It needs to be either fixed up by someone who's a better mechanic than I, or used for salvage.

So you know it's drivable, just in need of repair. src="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vGw6o8GTkr0"This is our hearty old Honda Accord sedan.
