1986 Chevrolet Celebrity review from North America
"A good car for the money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Left turn signal stopped operating.
Driver's side window stopped rolling down.
Hatchback stopped opening.
Transmission slowly failed, one gear at a time. Eventually I could only drive (illegally!) in reverse.
General comments?
This car was certainly worth the $300 I spent for it, however, I wouldn't recommend driving it in reverse 12 miles to work. :)
