1997 Honda Civic LXI review from Australia and New Zealand
"Reliable economical, fun and fast car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Central locking motor packed up.
Central locking manual switches broke twice.
General comments?
Excellent fun, and economical car to drive (3 door Hatch).
Brilliant suspension (double wishbones) front and rear for cornering and 85kw of power from a non V-tec 1600cc which really gets up and goes.
