2001 Suzuki Wagon R+ GL review from UK and Ireland
"Good value shopper, average performance elsewhere nothing to write home about"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Door central locking with key, affected by weather, needed lubricant.Eventually needed replacing under warranty.
Drivers electric window winder had to be replaced, under warranty.
Windscreen rubber surround came unstuck.
One spark plug had spark-over causing misfire.
Front wheel alignment out.
Front tires replaced under warranty, because of severe dangerous wear on one of them.
The automatic works well, but has poor speed on a long hill, causing the engine to race.
General comments?
This car is most reliable, never fails to start, always the tacho is rock steady on idle.
Good visibility all round when rear head restaints are removed.
Being 6ft 3 tall the head clearance is great, the pedal position is good.
The brakes are very efficient, steering also.
