Just because a product has Honda stamped on it does not make it the best.
My
father has returned 2 Izy models to the shop
under guarantee for a full refund. I also have a Honda GXV engined mower
in
the garage, with a hole in the crankcase
where the conrod has made a bid for freedom!!! Maybe because it was made
in
the USA????


I think he was saying that with the likes of Honda the chances of
getting spares/support years down the line are higher than with short
production runs from a smaller manufacturer. E.g. try getting spares
for a Rover...


No, can't see he was saying that. Seemed to be implying that because the
firm was
sold to an overseas company the product was somehow inferior, he never
mentioned parts supply.
Thats my take on it anyway.
