well i don't know about th uk accords but here in usa. the 92 accords have different problems.
most comon are main fuel relay. water in the trunk because of the bad seal on the tail lights. bad front mount if its automatic and u would feel the 1st and 2nd gear when the tranny changes them. the cam shaft seal is bad so u willl see oil driping. and if u have power windows the front ones will come out of rack specially the drivers one.


some info on the.
they are 2.2 and u got dx lx at 125 hp and the ex or se at 130 hp for the 91 92 models.

If the previous owner drove the car into the ground, check for this:

Spark plug tube o-rings leak oil
Cam seal
Balance shaft seal and retainer
EGR ports—look for the new plugs in the intake manifold
Timing Belts do not last forever
Radiator leaks at the upper tank
Condensors have slow leaks.
Cheap AutoZone spark plug wires

If the car is in half-way decent shape, most or all of these problems should have been fixed by now.

Other small problems..The inner door handles break, the body behind the rear tires rust (especially passenger side) and the antenna motor will go bad. But none of this should stop you from buying a 4th gen.
