1997 Suzuki Maruti GL review from Israel
"Cheap, economical, reliable, good for young drivers"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
One day, after a rainy night the car refused to start because of a closing in engine's electricity.
Engine and all car's electricity can suddenly "die" after a hard breaking
and unable to start once again.
General comments?
Although these problems, I think this
car is very reliable, I already have 100.000 Km on it almost without any problems.
It is the best car for it's
price,
it is cheap to afford, yet very small
(750 Kg). I have to push the driver's
seat maximum back to make it comfortable for me what's makes the back seat VERY uncomfortable for passengers.
The trunk is small too.
The car is a little slow, but for an 1.0 L automatic it's normal, also economical on gas (its gas tank is only 25 liters) what makes it good for a long trips.
