1997 Suzuki Samurai review from Panama
"Very good if you live in the forest!!...Like me.."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to change the gas tank because of bad protection under the car.
Radiator had a leak because of too much mud.
The front tires had to be balanced every 2 months because the suspension is too hard.
General comments?
It is a very faithful car. It took me to the highest point in Panama without breaking a sweat.
Very economical if used Off-Road, but in highway it used to much gas.
Very cheap.
