    That's a Glasgow registered Jazz! Winter road conditions here in west central Scotland are very harsh. Road salting is brutal here November to March and it looks like this little Honda has really suffered as a result. I actually have a 53 plate Civic as a second car. Its in super clean condition and absolutely rust free - even underneath. Thing is for the first 18 years of its life in lived in Bedfordshire. Never buy an old car that's lived in Scotland all it's life regardless of make!

    Rust killed my RD1 CRV. I went in cheap, knowing it was rusty and got a good 18 months service out of it. Rear end rust was the killer. Sills/arches/inner arches. The old adage of not poking the rusty bit is very much the truth with old Hondas.

    That is in the point. I think, any who buy a new car "inclusive new 0 miles" must put some protection underneath right away like Lano guard or anything else, specially in Scotland. I have the same Honda model of the video, with 169k miles 17 years old. and I am fighting the rust in the sills. And attack right away the rear arch rust. I clean the rust and use rust converter and paint myself to avoid have a Honda like the video, it is cheap solution. but this Honda in the video damn, 90k miles and is in horrible stage. The rest those Hondas are super reliable and easy to repair.

    @@flippingcarsrepairs I still like the look of the current Honda Civic. Especially in black. What's really put me off is that even though you can get a turbo on the standard range of Civics, it's downright anemic. The one in the current Mazda 3 gives you 250hp. The Civic's is only 180. That's not enough HP to deal with the headaches associated with a Turbo. Heck for only 10hp less compared to the Civic, you can get a Toyota Corolla non-turbo charged engine. No Turbo headaches, runs off Regular fuel, and the engine will practically last forever with a bit of care.

    It's like most cars of the era, they need to be maintained properly. Japanese cars of the early 2000s were known to rust because their rust protection was predominantly catered to Japan's environment. As Japanese cars began to be more widely imported and built overseas, things got a lot better.

    How would the arches get so bad? Is it because the car has been sitting out in the wind and the rain maybe? I have just bought a 10 year old Mazda 3 - all the bodywork looks fine and I noticed the owner had a garage and maybe while they were not using it or in the cold winter months the car would be in the garage away from the elements - I don't own a garage so I expect the bodywork will get worse under my ownership.
