1992 Chevrolet Cavalier RS review from North America
"Isn't it adorable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I was T-boned in my back passenger corner over 2 years ago. All I did was bend out the fender, took the insurance money, and now drive it with a large dent in the side.
At 100000 the front brake lines needed to be replaced, and not too long after that I replaced the brake pads.
Replaced valve cover gasket (no biggy) last week.
Beginning to rust, but when washed it still looks beautiful.
I also have a short in the switch for the lights, blinkers, and cruise.
General comments?
I have had this car for 3.5 years, in that time I have figured I've invested a total of less than $500, and that's including any maintenance, oil changes, and gas.
It was my first car and I treated it very rough (Decent Off-Roading Ability) and it held up great.
I travel 4 hours to school, and go home nearly every other weekend, and that car is very trustworthy.
