1994 Suzuki Swift Reviews - Page 3 of 3

Had to replace the clutch, wheel cilynders and exahust over the three years I have had the car which I was happy to do. parts expensive as mine was an imported car, but worth it.

Very reliable fast little car and looks the part with alloys and full body kit.

An annoying tapping in the top half of the engine developed at about 40,000km.

The flimsy body developed so many rattles I found it distracting when driving.

The little thing would be the perfect car if Suzuki had worked a little harder on the build quality.

The handling easily outstrips any other front wheel drive I have driven and the acceleration is more than adequate at around 7secs to 100km/h (62mph). Top Speed (as tested by me) is around 195km/h, due to gearing, not lack of poke.

The interior is well laid out and the seats are very supportive without giving backaches, with all the good gear such as electric windows and air-conditioning given as standard.

The real gem of the package though is that little 1.3 litre 80kw engine, which doesn't mind screaming up past the 7500rpm redline for some serious fun. Mated to this is a tight 5 speed which could give Honda engineers some sleepless nights.

In all I suppose this drive-train and racy handling should be expected from a company which normally specializes in making the fastest motorcycles on the planet.

Nothing what so ever!

This can can be summed up as "Cheap and cheerful" - not very inspiring, but it serves its purpose well.

Rear suspension can be heard creaking when the car is full (4/5 people).

Dash board also a bit "plasticky" and not bolted on tightly enough.

Buy this car if you think with your wallet.

Nil.

A superb car indeed.

Yields enough punch though its engine only a 1.0L engine. Petrol consumption is at its best as a full load in the petrol tank can last for almost 500km worth of travelling. Engine is very smooth & quiet as compared to my previous Daihatsu Charade which roared like an diesel engine.

Nothing has gone wrong, in fact it has never disappointed me at all.

Good sedan yet economical 1.0 litre engine.

Very light body and engine, would float after high speed but being light is advantageous in the sense that it picks up very fast compared to bigger cc cars.

My mileage is 50,000 (from 150,000). Water pump died only.

Who knows Russian roads or Russian winter? No?

You don't know what is offroad as well!

So, my Swift is a good thing! Most reliable car as I know.

None.

My car has 65,000 miles on it, and I have loved every mile. This car just makes you feel good when you drive. It could use more low end power, but makes great use of the power it has. I have put many 6-cyl. car to shame. The Swift GT is a great little car, and a steal for a sports car.
