Actually it's more than that (although that's what people tend to refer to it as). By Honda's own definition, VTEC (or iVTEC in the Euro's case) stands for "Variable valve Timing and lift, Electronic...
I agree. I would never attempt to tow 1200 kg unbraked. I think I've been misunderstood. I was merely talking about the car's ability to tow the load -- which some people have been suggesting that...
A very subtle evolution by the looks of things. I'd guess pretty much the same underpinnings, wrapped in a tweaked body with a few powertrain upgrades and some new goodies...
The Euro's brake discs are much bigger than many other cars -- even recent model Falcons and Commodores which have a much bigger curb weight (and interestingly I think it was the auto Falcon that...
There's not much in it either way if you work out the relative rolling diameters. The Euro R is fitted with 215s standard as opposed to the other Accord Euro models being fitted with 225s for some...
You'll probably tow it OK. Most of the work is done in just moving off, so as long as you drive sensibly and don't try to brake suddenly, it should be fine.
According to drive.com.au the new Euro (based on the concept shown here) should be revealed at the Geneva Motor Show in March and should be due here in the second half of this year:

Except for the fact that the car goes back from the repairer to a Honda dealer to have the ECU settings for the ABS, DSC, etc. reset (speaking from experience).
I'm not saying the Mondeo is a large car, it was merely an example of how increases in size within a segment eventually turns people away. I was merely responding to the comment that the room in the...
Well there's a generalisation for you. Many men can't either. Who cares? Not everybody's a car nerd (or has any interest in cars other than the fact that they use them for transport) and can...
No, given that it's a "high traffic" area, it stops you (or more often, others) from scratching the paint in the "doorway". Some people (like children and the elderly, in my experience) tend to step...
From my experience, if it's there it's pretty obvious. It's not like you sit there wondering about it. I also could feel it quite distinctly -- as if something was sticking somewhere when you moved...
Not everybody wants a bigger car. Manufacturers should be realising this by now given that many private buyers aren't buying the traditional "large car" anymore.
I believe the rumour/theory was that the Mondeo (or similar mid-size car) might be manufactured alongside the Falcon in the Ford plant given the trend away from large cars and towards mid-sizers --...
