1983 Honda Accord LX review from North America
"Fantastic deal for $800"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I was 3rd owner of this car.
Had previous owners taken better care of it, I would've kept it.
At time of purchase, 175K miles, few things were needed.
New clutch.
New tires.
New radiator cap.
New muffler.
General comments?
Paint was nearly gone, and the clutch was a bit tricky.
However, this car did great for the time I had it.
I rebuilt a whole new fence perimeter around our back yard - this car carried all the supplies, including the wood needed.
Car, regardless of questionable maintenance history, never once stalled or left me stranded.
Had the car been better maintained I would've kept her, she was great.
