1989 Daihatsu Charade Turbo review from UK and Ireland
"Who needs a girl when you've got this baby"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Unfortunately when I first got the car the main shaft in the turbo snapped which left me to believe this is a start of a beautiful relationship, apart from that I can't fault it.
General comments?
In my eyes you won't find a faster car for such cheap money.
The power's there and after previously owning a nova I am no longer scared to take corner's over 20mph.
It handles like a dream and once you lower the little puppy the handling's 10 times better.
