There's a reason why Hondas almost always make the list of the best new and used cars. They make a great product. It really is that simple. This is particularly important in the second-hand market where buyers worry about reliability. Will their new used car spend more time in the shop than on the road? Well, if you buy a Honda you will never have to ask that question. While the company offers a number of attractive SUVs and minivans, it is their saloon cars that are the most celebrated, having received numerous awards. The two most popular models are the Civic and the Accord. Both vehicles have earned the status of living automotive legends. Why buy a Honda? One word: dependability. These cars basically sell themselves because buyers know exactly what to expect when they purchase a Honda. They get a car that does not require much attention. Fill it will petrol and oil and have it serviced and the car will run like a dream for hundreds or even many thousands of miles. Maybe that is why Honda used car sales are so impressive? Really, dealerships love used Hondas because they know they always sell, and sell fast. They also know that the warranties they sell will not end up costing them an arm and a leg, because Hondas rarely need repairs. Of course, Hondas are not for everybody. For one thing, they are very expensive, even in the second-hand market. The Civic and the Accord have the highest resale values in their class. The reason for this is simple: the average Honda will run for decades, so the cars retain their value.
