2001 Saturn L200 review from North America
"Love it and would buy another one"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Chip and cat replace under recall.
Motor mount needed replaced.
Water pump needed replaced.
General comments?
This car is amazing. I did not think that I would like a 4 banger, but it is spunky and fuel efficient. Our family of four drove from Ohio to Maine - about 1,000 miles with the A/C blasting and the trunk full and averaged over 30 mpg.
Ours has heated leather and CD player. The interior is huge, the trunk is a cavern and the car still looks brand new. All of the materials are aging really well.
While I would like a bit more power, the fuel mileage is worth the trade off.
Love and would buy another one. The handling is amazing.
