This is the ultimate Little Old Lady's car. It is my mother's car and she is giving up driving at 82. I need to figure out what to ask for it and/or what to sell it to her neighbor/neighbor's daughter for.
The car is a 1990 Civic DX(?) certainly the bottom of the trim line.

If you don't need it, it ain't got it. At least it won't break.
Vinyl interior has a couple small holes in driver's seat. Otherwise interior is VG to EX.
Body has a broad dent in one door that looks like it could be popped out. A couple of moderate rust areas in front of rear wheels but it seems to be just cosmetic at this point. Otherwise paint and body are VG despite never being garaged.
Tires are ten years old, 3 M+S, 1 other. Lots of tread but they should be replaced.
Brakes look brand new in front. However, there is a slight vibration when braking at high speed (~60). I am kind of hoping that it is tire related. Didn't open up the drums but rear brakes and hand brake work very well.
Engine runs strong and seems smoother now that I have been driving it every day and got some fresh gas in it. I want to put some injector cleaner in the gas to see if that improves it further but I dont really know how smooth it ever was. It is not bad, just not like the GS-R. It has a problem with the idle when the engine and weather are warm, it alternates between normal, surging and hyper (~2200 rpm).
Transmission shifts well. Clutch is light and smooth.
Everything else pretty much works like new. I will probably get it caught up on maintenance I can do myself and fix a few cheap items and get quotes on the others
