1997 Honda Civic review from UK and Ireland
"Superior Scorcher"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The air conditioning bearing went - but this was through lack of use.
General comments?
This car is fast, and with a few modifications, they go like stink!
This Honda is the only car in the UK with dual runners on the Inlet manifold. Meaning that at 4500rpm you get a bit of Vtec and it opens up all the way at 5800rpm and will hit off the limiter at 8500rpm!!
It's a Wolf in Sheep's Clothing.
