1990 Honda Civic Hatchback CX review from North America

"This car gave the name Honda the mark of reliability"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Both C.V. boots click when I turn.

Rust is consuming the car, starter went, oil in my spark plugs.

General comments?

I bought this car when I had my old job, working at a gas station. So it was a point A to B car. It had little rust, everything was okay. The only things wrong with it was that I over paid and the last owners repaired the car "quick fix", as in sunroof glued (leaks), exhuast system badly weilded, minor stuff like that.

I got my new job 7 months ago, and I punched in 20000 kms on this baby, and it's still holding together, and I always tell myself that I'll drive it till it falls apart, and well it doesn't seem to be falling apart just yet.

The car is one of the best looking cars, third to the Honda Civic fifth generation and the Honda CRX. It's simplistic, light so you can push start and great on gas. If you wanted to, you could keep this car running forever, and it'll slowly turn into a classic. Of course not my Civic, the last owners permanently messed this car up (oil in spark plugs, riddled with quick fixes, shoddy paint job that leaves this car vulnerable to rust big time).
