1997 Subaru Vivio GLi review from Singapore
"When you pay peanuts, you get peanuts"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Seats Creaking from a loose connection point which is un repairable.
Noisy at high speed, 110km/h onwards.
Slow pick up at low gear.
General comments?
Could have been a more popular car if the pick up speed is improved.
Interior space is seriously small, not a car you would want to take on a long journey.
Good car for fuel saving and low budget drives.
