Default HELP PLS, i just bought my first car

as stated above i just bought my first car, a 2001 Honda Accord EX.

The car:

- had 2 previous owners with a total of 215.000kms(highway mileage)
- has no accidents reported
- has excellent maintenance report/summary***

*** I want to keep up the maintenance of this car.

So, my question is what are the typical maintenance servicing i should be doing regularly for my car.

thanks!

If it's been kept up with you should be in good shape. Just follow the owners manual if it's still in there.

Or you could have just answered his question.

Replace Timing Belt/Balancer Belt/Water Pump (that is if the seller did not provide proof of receipt that this work was done)

Tune up: Spark Plugs, Spark Plug Wires, Distributor Cap & Rotor Air Filter

Oil Change, Oil Filter, Check all fluids on car.

Check condition of brakes, check suspension.

Basic stuff.

You could also change the cabin air filter if it hasn't already been done.
