1988 Chevrolet Spectrum CL review from North America
"A little small if you're a bigger guy like me, but a great little go cart for skooting and parking"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced struts.
Replaced alternator.
Replaced exhaust and muffler.
Replaced CV joint.
General comments?
Thrifty on gas, 12-14k per litre.
A little sluggish on hills, but 300K on a 1.5 litre engine!
I took it to Puerto Vallarta from Vancouver, Canada and back with no problems, 10,000 km - pretty good.
It's like the energizer battery, keeps going and going.
