1990 Daihatsu Charade GLX review from Australia and New Zealand
"Dollar 4 dollar the best car I've had"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
One thing, the air conditioning causes the car to stall at idling.
General comments?
It's just a terrific car, gutsy, given it's size, so easy to drive, darts in and out of traffic great. Snack to park.
Can use a bit of extra fuel in city driving, but open road gets 5.5/6 liters to 100k.It's great, great, great car.
