1996 Honda Civic SR Coupe VTEC review from UK and Ireland
"Try to find one"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The radio has failed already.
Apart from that is seems to be sound.
General comments?
The 1.6 SR VTEC is a must, It is a really fast car for a 1.6. Push it over 4500 rpm and hear the engine roar.
It is hard to find the 1.6SR VTEC, but when you find one its worth it.
