1990 Chevrolet Cavalier RS review from North America
"Pocket rocket that is reliable and cheap"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Ignition module (found a used one for six bucks) water pump ($30.00) belt ($16.00), parts are very cheap for this car.
General comments?
Easy to repair, and very reliable for a small car. Great power to weight ratio with the v6.I have driven over 23,000km in it in just 7months. Comfortable interior, and decent fuel economy.
