1990 Honda Prelude EX review from UK and Ireland
"You have to own one to really appreciate how good these cars are!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Apart from general service items and consumables (rear brake pads, battery, exhaust section) the only problem I ever had with this car was over-choking on cold - the wax stat in the carburettor was worn. Unfortunately it's a part that's difficult to get without buying a whole new twin carburettor set, so I just "drove through" the problem.
General comments?
An extremely well-built car.
Very smooth, comfortable ride.
Easy to drive, handles really well.
The automatic gearbox is about the best I've driven - a fantastic piece of engineering.
