1997 Eagle Talon TSI AWD review from North America
"Awesome car if looked after!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
No major emergency repairs.
Had timing chain replaced at 85000 ks just for safety, it didn't break, but it was one thing that was mentioned that should be done.
Had to replace driver seat belt as it was sticking and wouldn't pull out properly.
General comments?
I love my car! I had to catch a ferry and took it to 140kls on a quiet road and it felt like a hovercraft. Very smooth. I am female so the car has been babied, but also opened up on the hwy when needed. I have owned it since new and I will run it into the ground... this car I am not selling.
