1990 Suzuki Sierra JX review from Australia and New Zealand
"The greatest and most reliable cheap little on and off-road machine!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing. Just the usually tyre, oil, fan and timing belt changes. Just incredible!
General comments?
This has to be the most amazing car I have ever known. It still runs like a dream. All I have had to do is replace the oil and filter every 12000km and keep the engine well tuned. As long as they are looked after these cars will last forever.
Off-road it's unstoppable.
The simple rule with these cars is, give them TLC and they will give you many years of fun.
