2006 Suzuki Swift GC AC 1.5 VVT
Summary:
Sporty, stylish and practical
Faults:
Problem with the brakes. Changed under warranty, but for the same type. Feel that the same problem is starting to appear again. Poor braking efficiency. Suggest buying higher quality brake set on own expense.
Some rattles, nothing serious. Drivers seat not perfectly fixed (can shake a bit when turning.
General Comments:
An excellent drive. Very sporty and a great feel. suprisingly stable at higher speeds (motorway). Could be a bit lowered. Suspension very good.
Very roomy and comfortable. Love the looks (in black).
I looooove the key-less entry system... wouldn't change that for anything.
Chicks love the car, which is very important IMO.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Don't Know

Several people have mentioned poor brakes. What is the exact problem? The brakes on my DDiS are excellent, but grate slightly, and rust over very quickly indeed. I know discs are mild steel and are supposed to rust, but even after a hard run that totally clears the rust off, the next morning they are covered in rust again. They do stop exceptionally well though, with progressive action.
My clicking seat is annoying, and the dealers can't fix it.
The car does get a very positive reaction from people, who love the style of it. Geoff.
