1986 Chevrolet Nova four door review from North America
"Very reliable and affordable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rust on the outsides of the wheel wells.
Not many other problems.
General comments?
This car is one of the most reliable cars out there. It is 20 years old and I can still hit 85 mph on the speedometer (that is as far as it goes) I am the second owner and am impressed with both the way it drives and the amount of gas milage that it gets. I average over thirty miles per gallon. It has still started in twenty degrees below Fahrenheit. I recently painted mine and fixed the rust/ body damage.
