Suzuki SX4 Hatchback (2006 - 2014) 1.6 SZ4 5d (2013/13) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

When we told people we had bought a SX4 they weren't familiar with the car but every one seems to like it and are especially suprised by price, they all think it cost a lot more than it actually did!

Would you buy this car again and why?

We wanted a high up vehicle and liked the chunky 'soft roader' look, tried a few different cars and found this to be the best value for money against it's rivals,, It's not as big as a Qashqai, drives better than a Juke and we found the Dacia Duster to be a lot costlier when you add options, the SX4 SZ4 has good kit as standard but would have liked a DAB radio and the trim seems a bit cheap although the car is well built and solid.

What are you likely to buy next?

Have only just bought this one and will look to keep it for as long as we can.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Franchised

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£11,333

When did you buy the car?

June 2013

Did you get a good deal and why?

Vat free deal was running at time, got a good part ex price on my old banger.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Manafacturer was offering vat free deal.

What was the dealer like?

Friendly and helpful but wanted to close deal immediately but we wanted to look at other makes first so found this a bit pushy.

What's it like to drive?

Very easy to drive, quiet engine and pulls well, not too much road noise considering height, it's comfortable and all switches / controls are within easy reach, haven't had it on motorway yet but performs well on a roads and doesn't wander like other suv's we tried.

What's it like to park?

Excellent visibility all round but will be fitting reversing sensors as is quite a lot higher than our previous car. Steering light and easy to manouvere.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Everything seems to work as it should so far!

What's most practical about your car?

Excellent visibility, good driving position, spacious interior.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

SZ4 package totally changes exterior look of car (package adds fog lamps, alloy wheels and side mouldings).
