1980 Daihatsu Charade XO review from Pakistan
"Reasonable car to own"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Suspension problems, keep breaking locally made engine foundations. Radiator cooling not good. Front seats are too close to dashboard.
General comments?
Rides well at high speed. Good car to keep, but availability of genuine parts is a big concern.
Slow at pickup. in 2nd gear goes uptu 50kms speed.
Fuel average is reasonable. approx doing 12kms per litre.
