1994 Dodge Neon Sport review from North America
"If they still made it, I'd buy another; really under-rated"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Head gasket, replaced under warranty, 60,000 miles. Turn signal switch, replaced under warranty, 35,000 miles. Air conditioner evaporator, 120,000 miles.
General comments?
One of the most fun cars I've ever had - it was just very enjoyable to drive, nicely balanced, yet quite roomy inside. Very good value for the money and terribly reliable. Never ate oil - changed every six or seven months witih standard dino juice, and never was low; engine clean after more than ten years. Drove on rather nasty streets, lots of potholes, yet front brake pads lasted through 95,000 miles (rears were original) and when sold at 121,000 it was still on its second pair of tires! (Yes, they were about ready to be replaced). All that and 34 mpg on the highway. Loved that car, but when the evaporator went, I upgraded to a PT Cruiser GT.
