1998 Daewoo Cielo GLE review from India
"A great buy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The fan belt transmission fuse point blew at 32000 Km.
The seat height adjuster broke at 34000 Km.
The A/C is becoming less effective.
General comments?
This was in fact a very good buy. It keeps up to it's name and performance.
I is just great for Indian roads, and gives me a very smooth & comfortable drive.
The engine is packed with a lot of power, I've driven it at a maximum speed of 170 Km/Hr, and even at this speed that car runs very smoothly.
Pick up is phenomenal, I can reach 120 Km/Hr within seconds.
I've heard that this car is very low on mileage, but ever since I have this car it gives me 10-11 Km/Lt in city and 14-15 Km/Lt on highways (with the A/C).
I very satisfied with this car.
