1997 Honda Logo review from Australia and New Zealand
"Fantastic cheap city car - not exactly suited to highway though"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Something needed replacing in the suspension in 2005. (cost $500USD, apparently common in Japanese imported cars).
Recall for ignition (but wasn't actually faulty)
General comments?
Excellent cheap city car. Doesn't handle that well at 100kph, jumps around a bit.
I've achieved 6.0l/100km in the city, driving carefully.
The seats have a horrid design, but are surprising supportive and comfortable, even on long trips.
Heater and Aircon amazing, simple to use too.
Loud on open road.
Small engine does well, but isn't fast, and up hills with anyone in the car it suffers.
3 gear automatic very simplixtic, gives good pick up from 70-105kph though (then almost stops accelerating).
Brilliant to park, do U Turns, great visability, huge front window.
