1990 Honda Civic GL twin carb 16v review from UK and Ireland
"Best 1.4 ever made!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Haven’t had a problem with the car yet. Had it for about 5 months now and all I have is top up the oil (it will have a service soon). I bought the car and the only problem it really has is with a worn clutch, which you can expect with the mileage the car has done.
General comments?
This car is only a 1.4 but hell it does shift! So far I have taken this car to 130mph. I’ve hit 35mph 1st gear 65mph 2nd 94mph 3rd 126mph 4th 5th doesn’t do much. This is the most reliable car I have ever had you can take the rpm to the top all day and know it will still go I would recommend this car to any one. The Honda spec for fuel consumption is 54mpg at 56mph so far my best is 48mpg, which I think, is impressive. I don’t think there is another 1.4 in its class electric windows and sunroof and mirrors + power steering. This is the best value for money car you can buy, by far!!!
