2002-2004 MPV? Any experience or comments?

[deep]

I'm looking at a new minivan, and have test driven about 10 used ones, including Odysseys, Siennas, Ventures, Caravans, and then finally a couple of MPVs. The MPV was definitely the most enjoyable ride of the bunch, although it's not as big (not really a downer for me) and not as well equipped as some of the others in terms of extras.

Does anyone have any good/bad/interesting experiences with the MPV? I don't see too many on the road, but all the Car magazine reviews I've seen have been quite good, as was my test drive.

Thanks in advance.

i did a lot of research for my 2000 mpv. i bought it 3 years ago used and have been very happy with it. Very cheap maintenance. Asides from oil and gas and brakes the only surprise i had was a spark plug connector i think. it was unexpected and not on warrenty and was around 200$. I'm currently at 145000kms.

while i was shopping i too was looking at the odessy but it was out of my budget. Even the honda saleman admitted the used odesseys are overvalued.
i would recommend the mpv highly.
