1994 Eagle Talon LS review from North America
"Fun, quick, toy, but can be very expensive"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Battery went out at 120,000 miles.
Ball joint went out at 119,000 Miles.
Engine is starting to use a lot of oil.
Interior is starting to wear badly.
Clutch is starting to go.
Gearbox is starting to go.
General comments?
This car handles like a dream. It hugs corners like no vehicle I have ever driven. Is it also very quick for a 1.8 5 speed, extremely fun to drive. However, this being a foreign car, and not made any more, parts are very expensive, and mildly difficult to work with. It is a fun toy to have around, but nothing I would rely on to get me around every day.
