1999 Daewoo Matiz SE review from UK and Ireland
"Bargain of the decade!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Both driver's side side protection strips have come off, but they were replaced under warranty.
Wheel bearing went one week after the 1st service.
General comments?
For the money this is an absolutely brilliant little car! Huge load capacity (with the rear seats down).
Very economical - over 50 mpg on long (250 mile plus) trips. Managed a trip from the North-East to Paris and back without any problems. Not excessively comfy on long trips.
Lots of admiring looks (and a lot of 'What on earth is that!?' looks too).
