2002 Daihatsu Sirion 1.3 GTVi review from Australia and New Zealand
"A pocket rocket to be proud of!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing at all so far. The only complaints I would have about it, are the way it is ever so easy to stall if you are doing tricky maneuvers (parking etc) It also has the extremely annoying intermittent fault of when going on long trips of misfiring (it will never seem to do it for the dealer, so it never gets fixed)
Rust in boot - was caused by boot latch and repaired to better than new under warranty.
General comments?
This is a seriously FUN car, with stand out from the crowd looks, heaps of character, and far more go than a 1300 engine should have. I really do not know why there aren't more of them out there!
