They have a reputation for being unreliable but I don't find that to be true.

The problem is 25 years ago they came with some ****ty "Prince of Darkness" electronics. By this point it's either been replaced or the car has been scraped.

Very inexpensive to keep on the road.



Only real pain in the ass part to repair is the rear end. Rear brakes are inboard and the seals see alot of heat. They wear out faster then normal. Worst if it's not repaired it can lead to brake failure and ya crash your car. But if you got a puddle under your car and you don't fix it thats on you I say.
