1990 Honda Civic GL review from Italy
"Cheap and reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced the muffler at 90,000 km and 140,000 km.
Replaced the carburettor at 85000 km.
It's getting rusty.
Noisy at high speeds (over 150 km/h).
General comments?
A very reliable and cheap car.
The engine delivers good power and torque.
The interior is very practical and roomy.
The exterior design is pretty unique although it is not aging very well.
