Used Honda Civic for Sale in Washington, DC

I really have enjoyed driving this Honda Civic for the last 16 years. Most importantly, this car still runs at 16 years old. It's a comfortable ride. It has good fuel economy. The vehicle's small size makes ideal for finding parking spaces here in the city. The interior has held up very well for 16 years of use and nine of those years are with kids riding along. I didn't know I was going to have a family when I got the car, but it has been a very practical family car. In addition to the parents up front, we were able to fit two car seats in the back. And sometime we were able squeeze in a small fifth passenger on the back seat. While the car has not been problem-free, the problems have been relatively few over the years. About two or years ago, several things required replacing around the same time. That wasn't any fun, but some of those parts were original to the vehicle and probably would not have lasted as long on another kind of car. Some things should have lasted longer have not held up over the years. For example, the radio doesn't work anymore nor does the clock. Water leaks into the trunk on one side when it rains.

I have always driven used Honda Civics, but my third one (2010) has had more problems than I generally have experienced. I purchased my current one with 30k miles on it, and though it drives fine, things keep breaking. In the first month of owning, I had to replace all the breaks, and 30k miles later, I'm having to replace them all again. I do live in a city, but this is ridiculous. In between the breaks, I've also had to replace the A/C compressor as well as some of the automatic sensors in the cars. Furthermore, this model looks a lot sleeker than previous models, and while it is pretty, it isn't too functional. The frame at the front of the windshield are at such a slanty angle, it is nearly impossible to see pedestrians at the street corners or if they are already crossing. It's just like that perfectly impracticable ratio. You get used to it though. Otherwise, it is a great car. Nice interior with more automated features and adaptors for technology. I still love Honda and am confident this car will be with me a very long time,
