1992 Honda Civic EX-V review from North America
"There's a Honda Civic, then you have the EX-V!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The power windows weren't working. It was taken to the place I bought it from and were fixed as part of warranty.
The front right axle broke at around 177K kilometres. (Due to a neutral-drop.)
Even though, this car is now ten years old, it feels more like only four years old. This car still has it!
General comments?
This car can take a lot of abuse. It's 125 Horsepower V-Tech engine really gets the car moving when you hit the gas.
The 1.6 liter engine is also great on gas. This car can beat most non done up civics in a race up to about 1996 and above. (Depending on model.)
It's a great Civic to drive. And if done up will be just amazing.
