1989 Honda Accord LX review from North America
"A long lasting vehicle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My oil pan leaks a bit. The radio makes a weird noise every time I turn it on. The rear window defroster is not working at all.
General comments?
I have used and abused this car and it still runs perfectly fine. For the age of the car it can still pick up speed and go over 100 Mph. The car engine looks like it's brand new, but it's the same engine that has been in the car ever since it came out in 1989. Everything that is an essential in the car that I need works perfectly fine. The paint is brand new, but the clear gloss on the bumpers are coming off.
Only cost me $900.
