1996 Chevrolet Cavalier LS Convertible review from North America
"Greatest car out there for the price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
At 70000 miles the water pump failed.
At 85000 miles the driver power window motor failed.
At 88000 miles the alternator failed.
General comments?
Besides normal accessories failing this car has been great.
While living in Europe for 2 years it has literally ran over 100mph on the autobahn for hours and gets 30mpg.
The motor and transmission are bulletproof.
This car is so nice that I am getting one for my daughter next year when she graduates.
