1997 Daewoo Cielo GLE review from India
"Very good if you have the money for gas"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air conditioner failed several times, even after repeated service. Fan belt got worn out. Engine oil leak due to oil pressure valve. Brake Pads were changed. New tires for all 4+1 wheels. Wheel alignment was needed. Car didn't do more than 110Km/h, Probably dude to alignment faults. Several minor fixes.
General comments?
The car has been very comfortable to drive. The repairs since I bought the car cost ed around $500 till today. Considerably less compared to the amount of gas it consumed. Everything else is so so.
The engine is very good for Indian cities.
It some what skidded while I took a quick turn.
Fuel efficiency 6 - 7Km/liter.
