1990 Suzuki Santana SJ410 review from UK and Ireland
"Fantastic fun!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Bought the Jeep from a dealer - had a week when the head gasket blew. Took it back - head gasket repaired, also had a new thermostat and top hose. Mechanic dropped a fuel pump - so had a new one of those too!!!
Fingers crossed now!
General comments?
It's a terrific vehicle!!! If you want something that's fast, quiet and comfortable, then this one's not for you! However, if you want something to have some fun in - then this IS the one! It's eye-catching and surprisingly roomy inside. I manage to squash two children and a week's shopping in!!!
It is, however, extremely heavy to drive - and a wimp like me struggles on tight parking etc... and fear that I'm going to end up with muscles like pop-eye.
...but... I wouldn't swap it!!
