1985 Honda Accord LX review from North America
"Roll the dice, you may get lucky, you may not"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The major problem is the carb.
Very complex and very very expensive to fix.
Stalls.
It's nice to drive, great handling.
The 4 cyl is a dog for me but fine for my wife.
Beware 1985 and 1985 Honda if there is a carburettor problem.
General comments?
Accords are very good cars but very very expensive to fix.
Not many places to take it to get it fixed.
So beware.
