2003 Suzuki Liana review from Qatar
"Good pace, good place"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Interior lamp burned out.
Front brake rotors got warped during a emergency stop from 130km/hr.
Nothing else.
General comments?
Good solid car. Wide view out front. Nice high seating position means good comfort and view.
Handling is better than most cars at this price level.
Power is decent, but low end torque is weak when the AC is on.
Brakes are OK, but not exceptional.
Digital instruments are very clear and easy to see at night, but not so good on bright daylight hours.
Engine is pretty noisy, but not beyond the point of comfort.
Transmission shifts smoothly and promptly.
Wind noise is louder than most cars I have been in.
AC is OK, but not as good as Nissan or Toyota units.
It gets about 9km/L of fuel which is good, but worse than a Civic or a Sunny.
