Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Very nice on long drives on the motorway or in the countryside. It can be fidgety on pot-holed roads, but I guess thats the nature of the car. The driving position makes it feel safe.
What's it like to park?
It could do with parking sensors, although I owned a Toyota Landcruiser before which was larger and definately more difficult!
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Nothing. Although I've only had the car a couple of weeks, I expect it to be as reliable as other Suzukis I've owned in the past. I've read forums on the internet and on the whole theres lots of happy owners out there.
What's most practical about your car?
Very spacious inside for a mid-size SUV
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
The stereo is surprisingly good.
