1998 Daewoo Lanos SE review from Australia and New Zealand
"Still swear by this vehicle, like it or not"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
No problems as yet.
Great service from the Daewoo dealer.
Have ten Lanos' on the fleet at work, have no problems with them and still swear by them.
General comments?
Great little car for its price range.
Smooth as silk manual box.
Good economy (600 km's on 3/4 tank last weekend with the A/C on).
Great dealer support, good warranty.
If anyone doesn't like their Lanos, they should have taken it for a proper test drive before they bought it.
Great handling with wider, lower profile tyres.
Drive a Commodore, still love driving the Lanos.
