1999 Suzuki Swift GLX review from UK and Ireland
"Really good value for money, and it was reliable till the end"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The battery had to be replaced last year, but not above usual wear and tear.
General comments?
The car is a very good car to drive, especially for the economic value of the car and the weight of the car.
The car has a good speed for round town and on the motor way. The automatic gear box is a bit sluggish, but if you put it in 2nd then it will be a real little speedy number.
The car is a very strong car, especially as we were in a crash where the front and back were hit and, the car was written off, but both me and my passenger walked away, and there was no intrusion of the foot wells or the cabin of the car. The car absorbed the shock both front and back.
Great little car.
