I got this car as a gift. But believe me this was no silver spoon in the mouth with the initial work that had to be done. The timing belt wore out and i had to get a full engine replacement, a new timing belt, oil change, new tires. Once i got all that sorted out this car has been faithful to me ever since.
I have legged heavy pieces of furniture to shifting my whole stuff from the basement. The fuel economy is immaculate and i can say that with the amount i pay as compared to other people with AWD vehicles. In the end my insurance doesnt run up too high, even though the engine conceals a civic 1.6l inside.
