Our family has had 4 Civic hatches and all have been completely reliable and great to drive and own.
1974 model: 1976-1980 - nothing at the time compared: amazingly well made, revvy, decent handling, cool dash. Hard to think 120Y was made around the same time..
1980 model: 1980-1988 - more refinement, more space, better ride but not the advance the first one was
1988 model: 1988- 1996 - amazingly quick but smooth as, fab interior and cutting edge exterior.
1996 model: 1996-1999 - not so exciting any more as competition more interesting.
My pick is the 1988 model 3-door. New model looks great though.
