Brackets are not allowed in URLs. That should be represented as:
../images/cms/hondatopba%281%29.jpg

I'm not sure if the error message is a result of the validator not
being able to detect that error state and failing when it hits the ")"
(and thinking it means 'end of url') or if it just has a poor error
message for that situation.
