Car was great until 3 weeks ago. My engine fried itself when a radiator hose blew.
Have to say an engine should not blow up at 80000 miles. I know I'm severe driver, but not that hard on a car that it will blow then.
Extremely fun car to drive with 205's for wheels, the thing is glued to the road, and is very quick for such a small underpowered car.
Hey, The 88 Dodge Colt E is a very powerful fast piece of machinery.- DJ.
I have an 88 and an 89 Colt, base models both. Between the two of them, I have over 600K miles on them. I'm doing a complete restoration of the 88 at this time; then I'll do the 89. I plan to keep both for a very long time. Little Mitsu 4-banger is a wonderful little powerplant that gets excellent mileage.
I bought an 88 Colt 1.5l with 139K miles, and drove around the country for a few months. It's a great car, very straight forward and dependable. The biggest weakness seems to be the tendency to crack exhaust manifolds.
