1992 Honda Concerto review from Netherlands
"Drives way better than it looks"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
One of the front lights was damaged. Cost way more money than I expected to fix.
Exhaust pipe was rotten the year I bought it. This was fixed easily and rather cheaply.
General comments?
Excellent car, always runs without a hitch.
It handles very smoothly, good grip in all kinds of weather.
The fuel usage varies; when it's cold the car seems to use more fuel, also on longer trips.
I was amazed that even after 11 years I could drive it at 160 km/h without any trouble. I didn't want to go any faster than that though, because of the engine noise, which really got loud at that speed. I generally cruise at 140-150 km/h, so I have a little power left if necessary, and have no trouble with that with this car.
