drives in wet snow and ice |
" No
complaints regarding reliablilty. The Suzuki 3 cylinder is a
good runner. I do most of my own repairs and have had some problems
with parts availability and cost. Just had a new clutch installed
at 150k miles. The car is definitely underpowered, but I can't
complain with a maximum observed economy of nearly 60 mpg (yes,
60) with a manual transmission. If you buy an auto transmission,
you're wasting your money. Car has served me well, but I wouldn't
buy another one. I'd recommend it as cheap, but very reliable
transportation."
Trouble-free: No
"Always buy OEM (Bosch or Suzuki)electrical
parts for this vehicle. Trouble with KEM
parts. "
