Oldie but goodie. Good car for cash car
It's really old and burns oil super fast but it's a good car. I have an issue with it where it needs the cv axle replaced but once that's done it'll be good to go. I haven't driven it in awhile but from what I remember it's pretty good on gas. Hoping to fix it very soon.

My car is very safe to drive for a beginner driver.
I love everything about my car. There is nothing to dislike about my car.

High miles is when things stop working.
Power windows and doors stop working. If power door quits working you cannot open the door to get it fixed without cutting the door. Major expense. Air hasn't worked since I have had it. Fan blower gas now stopped working at 283900 miles. But despite everything I love the 2000 CR-V.

Reliable Honda CRV I recommend it to anyone buying a new car.
The most reliable car I've ever owned. It's amazingly good on gas, very comfortable and very roomy.

It gets very good mileage.
It gets good mileage. It is attractive. It is comfortable and easy to drive. What I don't like is that It's not a :status car,"
accountCircle KELLY W
I runs well. I've had no problems with it except routine maintenance.
L like that it is four wheel drive. I like the color which is red. No complaints.
accountCircle Deirdre C
Very reliable. Good room in the trunk. Comfortable ride. Holds it value if you eventually need to trade it in. Runs forever!
Considering it's a very old vehicle it has given me no major problems. It holds Its value better than most vehicles. It's still running great. Has loads of room for toting stuff. Maybe not too powerful on hills.

No ac brakes transmission windows smells good thought.
I think that my car can do thing other cars do but not so well a same time help me like I would always help Honda out.
accountCircle Ray S
It is a green crossover that has been around since 2000.
Broken down a few times (right now it is broken down), it has cloth seats (I hate cloth seats), it smells weird, I want a new car, the color of the car is green, the armrests are weird, the center console is weird, and it is an older vehicle so it has no safety features.
accountCircle Bobby C
There really is nothing important about my car that others need to know
It is really out of date and it has some issues. I am basically keeping it until I can afford something better. It's just a means of transportation anymore
accountCircle Lee L
My car is old and run down.
My vehicle is old. I want a new vehicle. My vehicle is run down. I want a new car soon. I like it but I do not like it. I am ready for a new car.
accountCircle Bree F
Great reliable family car!
The car is a good family car for someone who doesn't want a really big SUV or minivan. When kept up and maintained that car is amazing! The 'table' under the car rattles a lot and makes a ton of noise but after a while your grow used to the sound then you can't tell if something else is broken or not
accountCircle Erika R
Family car that brings memories.
Honestly this car is great. It is the family car, it fits up to 5 people and it is a car that is great with gas. I would definitely recommend this car to a big family. The only downfall of this car would be its color. It's an ugly brown. Given the year, this car is not the flashiest but newer versions should satisfy you.

Great car for first time driver
Still in great running condition. Got it over a year ago and it had less than 90,000 miles on it. It has automatic windows that still work pretty good. Great for a beginning driver.
accountCircle Tracy Y
CR-V update me! CR-V needs to be modernized asap.
New parts needed every 5 months to 9. Air is currently out. It cost an arm to get it fixed. The shocks are currently off too. The car makes bad bouncing noises when the car is in motion. The interior collects all types of dust. Gas has to be refilled 3 times a week. Terrible mileage.

2000 Honda CR-V putts along.
I absolutely love the reliability of this car. It is been in my family since 2000 and still runs very well. I have had a few problems but such is life. I have nearly 300, 000 miles on my CR-V and it still runs smooth. Routine checkups & oil changes my friends.

I paid 1,000.00 for it used and the inside looks like it is brand new. No major problems so far it's a miracle.
