The Honda Stepwagon / Stepwgn Owners Club

Their selection looks good - but the prices are higher than elsewhere - however they talk about "cherry picking the best ones" so may be worth paying a bit more

That's assuming they actually ARE picking the best ones!

Good point - you might want to inspect the Japanese auction documents - They show the details that are wrong with the car including all the small bumps, scratches etc. Japanese people are very concerned with such details and want perfect cars . They will not drive dirty cars - I have been to Tokyo and saw for myself!

Probably the same as CR-V of same year - service schedules/record books available via Honda dealers - about £10. O got mine 'over the counter# when I was having my 2003 CR-V serviced.

I've just got my hands on the 'Shop Manual supplement' for the 1998 Steppy - it says to change the timing belt at 60000 miles or 5 years.
Other things are - oil change and oil filter at 3000 miles, otherwise it's on a 12000 mile schedule similar to the CR-V 1998 (B20B engine).
