1997 Daewoo Espero CD review from Australia and New Zealand
"A cheap performance, good quality and good equipment bargain"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing, I have never had a problem with this vehicle, apart from when the wheels came out of alignment when I hit a kerb.
General comments?
The car has good equipment levels, the build quality and rigidity of the car is okay, performance is delivered in the 3000+ rpm range.
When you put some good tyres on it it goes and goes.
I have pushed it to 170kmh on the freeway, and the engine didn't struggle.
A bit gutless, but its not a supercar and there are some annoying rattles once the car gets pushed to about 140kmh.
