01 Civic Lx-g

Hi, this is my first post on 7th gen as im thinking about buying a 01 civic lx-g,
but before i do i just wanna ask if any of you have any suggestions about buying this particular civic, it has 123000km on it for 9000 CAN,

I went to check it out today, and was thinking what i should be looking for under the hood before i buy it or down under, like any problems that frequently occur with civics,


thanks in advance

Just make sure you have a detailed accident and maitenance history. Look for things like the brakes being done, timing belt, and oil changes at correct intervals.

i'm inclined to agree with ads i have a 2001 lx coupe, i've had no problems with it aside from a factory recall, my car has 139,000 mi on it. as long as you have it checked when you're supposed to it should run fine

Why stay away from the '01s? I got one, bought it used. Its in great shape, havent had a single problem from it.

like most cars, the first year production is usually where the manufacturers find their mistakes to be improved on the following year productions, hence the recalls for that year.
