Low mileage Horizon

1990 Plymouth Horizon America 4dr Hatchback
This is my 3rd. Horizon. We had a 84 that got totaled when some idiot ran a stop sign. (60,000 miles) I bought a new 90 to replace it and put over 100,000 miles on that one. Both of those were manual shift. I bought this latest 90 on ebay for a song. It is a 1 owner with 34,000 miles. Auto, silver paint, grey interior. The car runs like a champ. Great mileage, they really do handle nice … in the snow. I'll run this till it drops. Fun cars. I have had this one for 1 yr. and put 6000 miles on it with minimal problems.

1990 Plymouth Horizon America 4dr Hatchback
This '90 model has 142000 miles on it
and still runs great. I have replaced
a number of valve cover gaskets, the
head gasket, engine and transmission
bearings and seals, A/C compressor,
half shaft, radio, radiator, headliner,
and probably a few other things. But I
like the way it drives. Good handling
and response. Doesn't burn oil.

1990 Plymouth Horizon America 4dr Hatchback
Beat a 1995 3.1 liter Grand Prix to
racing once. ;-) Powerful engine for
the time. Clutch has extremely long
travel. Shifter often reluctant to
shift into first and reverse. Great
handling for an economy car, and
incredible in bad weather. I honestly
did not know what sliding and
hydroplaning were until i got rid of
this car. Unreliable though. Choke
would stick (i … had an 87) in cold
weather, alternator failed at 70K,
brakes locked up permanently, exhaust
system often problematic. Good economy,
averaged 31mpg.
