1998 Honda Civic 5door hatch vtec-e 85kw review from Netherlands
"Japanese fuel saving car without drawbacks"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front brake disks were replaced under warranty.
General comments?
This car has space enough, is comfy too drive and it really economical.
If you drive smoothly (but not slow) you can get 17 km/s easily, yes that's only 5.8 liter / 100 km
It's a light car, only 1000 kg and with 115 ps it's fun to drive too.
Drive at constant speed with eco light on it's smooth and economical, shift back, rev it and of it goes.
Engine can sound a little rough.
seats of the 5 door are comfy too and the boot is big enough
