13 things to look out for before buying a used G1 Honda Insight
Really enjoying this restoration project. I thought I'd share what I've learned and go through the 13 most common issues (particular to this car) to consider before investing in one of these cars. In my case the car was a very clean used example and the issues from the list below, all of which I've since addressed, were 1, 2, 9, 12, 13. It doesn't have OE tires but the tires are in great shape and mpg is great so I'm going to use them.
