1986 Honda Accord LX-i Hatchback review from North America
"An all around great car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Not much has gone wrong with this car, I've replaced the entire exhaust except for the catalytic converter and I've gone through a couple of CV boots, those are the two "major" parts that I've had to replace.
The power windows are getting sluggish, but a little lube should fix that right up, and one of that four tail lamps has gone out.
There was also a tear along the seam on both front seats when I got the car, but that was not a hard thing to fix and has since been repaired.
General comments?
This is a great car to be your first.
It has never broken down on me and has always gotten me to where I need to go.
It has enough pep to keep me happy and handles great.
I love the look of it and always look forward to driving it again.
