This is a 1982 Honda Civic. My mother gave me her 25 year old Honda Civic 4 months ago. However, until Mum buys a new Ford Festiva or Honda Jazz... we share the car. IMO, this car is really special, I love the small details of my inherited Honda and I love the reliability and the amazing charm and "personality" the car has. :D I really think this car is one of the best cars from Japan, Asia.
lol - it's an Auto :D
still, it looks to be in good nick for 25 years old.
EDIT; we've got the same headdeck as below in our jeep :)

It's interesting to see how big the current Civic has become compared to the old ones. Just like the Golf.
Looks well kept :)
Is that auto the Hondamatic two-speed? (not knocking it)

nota, that is correct ^. I bought a 7.3MP digital camera so I will post more pictures of the rear of the car which includes a HONDAMATIC badge... and pictures of the engine etc... :D
P.S- These photos were taken with a mobile/cell phone. Nokia 6280 2MP camera.

still good enough a camera to see that a vacuum cleaning underneath the handbrake could do wonders...:D
but the car looks nice, just showing that in a protecting climate a car can almost last forever, if miles covered remain within reasonable limits.
Adelaide is nowhere near a protecting climate - especially for cars.

Pieter, the crumbs and dust add extra character and charm to the car. :D :D Seriously, I regularly clean the inside of the car using a vacuum cleaner and some special "car cleaning cloth" :D

Really? Salting the roads during winter times?:)
No - just a constant 30+ Temperature during summer.
My parents used to have an '82 Civic, although theirs was a sedan. They bought it new, and had it until 1990, when my dad totalled it in a parking garage accident. If he hadn't, we might very well still have it today. Great ride. :)
Wow, totaling a car in a parking garage, now there's a feat.
That Civic's condition is pretty damn good, looks like it'll be a fun little car.

So what? I don't get it. That's is not a problem unless you drive a 60's Fiat. :)
