1984 Honda Accord LX review from Australia and New Zealand
"A fast reliable car. Find one and buy it!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car had just been in service and had its clutch replaced (pretty good seeing though it hasn't been in a work shop for a good 10 years).
The rubber lining for the boot also has worn, but it only cost 20 dollars to repair so there were no dramas there.
General comments?
Well the car is quick reaches 90km/h in 2nd gear without redlining. Very comfortable inside.
Handles well in the wet and also on dirt.
One downfall I might add is the seats are quite low, but you get use to it after a while.
All in all it's a quick and reliable car. But its only quick if you are willing to put your foot down on the accelerator!!
