1994 Honda Civic VTi review from UK and Ireland
"A fast and fun car with a great engine sound-track"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
Car came with full service history from a Honda dealer, which is almost mandatory for an engine like this.
General comments?
Come on... 60mph in just over 7 seconds, a ton in around 20, and an engine that revs to 8000rpm! What else do you want?
I'm fed up with hearing "there's not much torque!" When will people understand what DOHC VTEC is all about. Power & revs! This monster thrives on revs, if you can't bear to scream a car round to atleast 6000rpm look elsewhere! But revving it that hard is no chore and you'll never tire of the sound that fabulous engine makes.
Handling is good too.
