1987 Honda Accord LX 4 cylinder from North America
Summary:
Breaks my heart to retire her... only because of the frame; won't pass inspection anymore..
Faults:
Thermostat valve..
Rotors, tires, the usual stuff. Except the frame is now so bad after an accident a long time ago, they told me not to put any more money into it. Breaks my heart, because she starts up every time! (except you have to step on the gas pedal for 1 second to start her)
Currently sitting out to pasture, and still starts right up!
Transmission redone, and redone again due to a mechanic's error.
New strut after a fall into a big pothole. Very creaky axle, no one can find the source.. not a CV joint.
Horn only sort of works, they can't find that problem either.
Turning on the headlights is a two handed operation, hold the stick and turn.
General Comments:
Such a comfortable layout, feel safe with the size. Love the driver's side layout. Love not seeing any hood out the windshield... just road.
I love this car. A good deal for $600 to drive for 2 years after my 1990 Civic engine blew at 145000 miles!!
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
