MORE and more carmakers are trimming their spares to save weight and, it must be said, cut costs. Space-saver spares have been around for more than 20 years and work well, despite the limited speed at which they are supposed to be used. The inflation foams, from our experience, are OK. Runflat tyres are surprisingly tough and, from my experience of driving 100km on a puncture last year, work well. The real problem in Australia is getting a replacement tyre in a remote location. Anyone contemplating a long trip should take a full-sized spare.
YES, I do think this is unacceptable. It is common practice by car companies in situations like yours to offer to pay for the parts and sometimes part of the labour, but as your car has done only 43,000km I think Honda should cover the entire cost of the repair. For a gearbox to fail at such a low mileage is most unusual and you would suspect it is because of a manufacturing fault. Forget about the dealer, go straight to Honda and ask for a better deal.
THE mileage is very low, which throws the value out somewhat. A Tacuma with average kilometres on it will get about $12,000, but you may get $500 more because of the very low odometer reading.
