2001 Daewoo Lanos S review from North America
"Great bargain all for $5500.00"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So far nothing at all, this car really impressed me it was a left over from 01 and never sold and I bought this car for 5500.00 american dollars, i took a chance with the daewoo banctruptcy and also got a extended warranty, I have to say being "brand new"i think this will be a good car.
General comments?
I really like the Lanos, it looks nice and this model has pwr windows, locks, stereo cd, sport rims, and all for $5500.00 american dollars, I was driving an 89 shadow before this Lanos, and what a difference, this car feels solid, and is a lot more car than the shadow was! I have 900 miles on the car now and so far no problems, it starts right up, drives wonderful, and the car feels safe, I wish it had a cloth headliner, the cardboard feel of the headliner is cheap!! but for now that's all ""bad"" I can say about the car, try to find a car that had 000038 miles on it, with the equiptment this one had on it for $5500.00. I was impressed with the price, and the fit and finish on my Lanos is above average also. lets see if it runs well over time. but for now I'm impressed with the Lanos!
