1994 Honda Concerto EXi review from UK and Ireland
"Insurance friendly, high performance bargain"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Intermittent operation of door location lights.
Electric sunroof failure.
Electric windows laboured and noisy in operation.
General comments?
A very capable family hatchback with the performance of a sports car combined with the practicality of an estate car. The engine is particularly good, but has heavy fuel consumption when driven enthusiastically. Ride is good, but too soft for my liking and the vehicle suffers from excessive body roll when subjected to high speed cornering.
Only a couple of dislikes. The anti-lock brake system pump sounds like a jumbo jet flying overhead and the engine consumes 1 litre of oil every 1500 miles, but I am assured this is within the specified limits.
