1999 Honda Civic VTi Aerodeck review from UK and Ireland

"An underrated performance car"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The front brake discs are warped.

The air conditioning needed to be re-charged.

The radiator fans stopped working causing the car to overheat in traffic.

Rattles from behind the trim.

General comments?

Very rapid in a straight line, only a little body roll in high speed cornering.

Reasonable fuel economy if driven sensibly.

Understated looks mean that I feel confident leaving it unattended, although I had to fit an alarm as they are not standard.

Why do they all seem to warp their front discs?

My only criticism is the steering. The wheel is too big and the turns to lock too many. This makes tight bends very difficult to take at speed.
