1997 Saturn SC SC2 review from North America
"Cheap and reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Other than wear items not much has gone wrong with this car. It does consume a lot of oil in between oil changes, but that's something I can live with considering how reliable this vehicle has been. It has not left me stranded yet. I replaced things like the battery, brakes, tires, plugs, starter, mostly wear and tear items.
General comments?
I love how it is cheap on gas and its very reliable compared to the other vehicle I owned prior to it. Its quick enough and it runs great.
