Hi,

My brother will be investing in a dinky little Honda CRX Del Sol this weekend. 1.6 16v VTEC, 125bhp, Metallic Green ESi.

Anyone have any comments on this motor, how it goes, stops, handles and if it'll be able to show a clean pair of wheels to my Citroen ZX Volcane (can't afford a scoob yet!).

Cheers

I had the 160bhp Vtec version with the electric hood. It's nippy but don't expect it to be anything like the civic's with the same engine as it is much heavier. It's easy to drive and maintain...most parts are from civic.

You can feel the chassis twist a little bit with the hood off though due to the lower stiffness of the car. What to look out for is the rubber seals on the roof start to leak after a few years, get them all replaced if you don't want to get wet in the rain.
