2001 Chrysler Neon LX review from South Africa
"Can't get better value for the price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Took delivery of the car without power steering.
This was replaced by dealer, no charge.
General comments?
Car was sluggish.
As I live 8000 feet above sea level.
A ram air system sorted that out.
I also use the car for towing.
680kg caravan/trailer, no problem.
Changed the tyre size.
185/65/15 to 195/50/15.
Smaller circumferance.
But it pulls better.
Replaced rear muffler.
With a free-flow exhaust.
