2008 Daihatsu Sirion GLX review from Egypt

Nothing!

This car is made by Daihatsu and Toyota.

In Japan there are 2 editions for exactly the same car: Daihatsu Boon & Toyota Passo.

So Toyota is involved and that means no big faults in any point, but that doesn't mean each point is perfect!

This 2008 Sirion is fast, roomy inside, easy to drive due to very soft steering and high driver`s seat, which means very good visibility.

The car also is well designed outside and inside, with parts feeling expensive compared to the car's price.

Fuel consumption is about 13.5~14km/L (mixed drive 1300cc A/T)

Spare parts prices are reasonable.

Negative points:

- Tough rear suspension with small shock absorbers, which means if you are driving on bumpy road, you will hear noises and you will not feel comfortable.

- However the driver's seat position is very good, it is not very comfortable for the back side (but in 2009 models, they changed the seats).

Besides when you put the driver seat to the maximum back position, people taller than 182cm will not find a comfortable leg position (I`m 180cm and can almost sit comfortably).

- Windows shake and make some noise after 140km/h speed.

- Parking signal button is not well positioned (you must look at it to push).

This car is good city car for young people with many options in good price, but the biggest issue is the rear suspension.
