2001 Saturn L200 review from North America
"Good for the right price CHEAP"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I am having the timing chain replaced by Saturn it has not broken yet... I found out about the recall by searching the Internet. I was a little surprised that I was not notified by mail. When I first purchased the car I did bring it in for a tail light recall. I can't complain too much I purchased the car for only $2,500 and spent around $600 on replacement parts such as a new starter tires and a battery and brakes (I do most of the work myself. It is great on gas and has a enormous trunk & handles rides well. For the money it makes a good used car however I would only buy one it it was a steal like this one. It does not compete well with Japenese cars as far as reliability it is probebly close to Volkswagen Jettas in that area just not as cool lol.
