2000 Daewoo Lanos review from North America
"A complete waste of money and a giant hassle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The headlights have gone out 3 times.
The timing belt has broken twice, causing the valves to get bent.
The rim was dented by a minor pothole, the replacement took a month and a half to be shipped.
Car squeaks and rattles constantly.
General comments?
This car does nothing special.
It has been a huge waste of money and a horrible expense.
I would tell anyone thinking about buying this car to run away screaming.
