1984 Suzuki Maruti LX 0.8
Summary:
Best value for money in this hyped car market
Faults:
This is an absolute beauty in respect of running costs and being troublefree. Has excellent carrying ability when used with a limited load of say 2-4 persons on city roads. But the air conditioning is weak when fully loaded. A little difficult in extreme hot weather but could be excellent for cold climes.
General Comments:
Value for money. Used ones are available at 400 UK pounds in India, a throwaway price.
1984-85 models were built mostly in Japan and are better built.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Dear readers.
I am French and believe it or not I am the proud owner of a Maruti 800, very few in France!
I love it and it is great, but it just let me down this week.
I have a problem with the engine starter and I am looking for help, could you give me advice?
The starter does not kick in, I checked the electric motor, it is OK, but the electromagnet doesn't move into position.
I do not know if the problem comes from the starter electromagnet or the ignition key switch.
I am looking for some info regarding the electric circuit or an explanation on cabling of the starter.
Thank you very much for your help.
