Honda Grace buying guide (Ireland, 2026)
What a used Honda Grace costs in Ireland, how it does at the NCT, what goes wrong and what it costs to fix. Based on 85 for sale right now.
Our take on the Honda Grace
It's sold here mainly as a petrol. At the NCT, the 2015–2018 cars do better than other cars the same year. The 1.5 hybrid is the most common engine (100% of those with a known engine), and it usually lasts around 400k km.
