1998 Honda Civic VTi review from UK and Ireland
"Perfect all rounder"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Park light bulb blown.
Otherwise nothing at all.
General comments?
This is now my second Honda; my 1st was the EG9 JDM, and I now have the EK4 VTi 1.6 VTEC.
This car is a joy to drive; very calm and quiet when cruising, and a total animal when giving it the berries.
The car has done over 103,000 miles, and still drives more or less like new. I would advise anyone to have one of these cheap, fast reliable cars.
Thus far I have installed a PI Lowering kit, K&N intake, and upgraded audio; nothing else needs to be done as far as I can see.
