2000 Daewoo Lanos S review from North America
"Good car for the money!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The seats tend to move (tilt) back every other day and I have to constantly raise them (very annoying).
I had to put on seat covers after about a year because the cloth was discoloring and started to open at one seam.
I don't like the front of the car at all.
General comments?
I liked that is very economic to run and is very reliable.
I hate that the value has decrease so badly that if I trade it in is worth next to nothing.
The 1.6L engine actually is peppy and responsive.
I hate that it makes a weird sound when I step a little hard on the gas, almost like metal hitting metal.
