1992 Honda Civic Esi review from UK and Ireland
"A wolf in sheep's clothing"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing so far.
General comments?
I have been blown away by the speed of this innocent looking car.
The V-TEC engine sounds like a Formula One car and almost performs like one.
Handling is not amazing, but I haven't amended anything, I'm still using the standard wheels and suspension.
Took it to 130 mph and could have got a few more miles if I wanted to.
Seriously considering modifying this car, next step has to be a smart spoiler on the boot.
Recommend investing in a Manual version.
