Suzuki Swift 2010

3 star review

I am quite happy with my suzi. It is my second car and I will be keeping this car for a few more years. I love the way it feels like driving a rally car because it hugs the corners so well. My only concerns that I had with the car was the original tyres and the selection of first and reverse gears. With the tyres: Initially the handling of the car was jerky when in the lower gears, but since I have had the original tyres replaced with 16" mags the handling of the car has changed completely for the better, and it looks great too. As for the gear selections: Initially when I got the car and you put it into first gear, you have to be stopped for it to go into place, you could not be rolling even the slightest, this has changed now I suppose after being worn in. As for reverse I have had more troubles than anything but have worked out that you must start the car with your feet on the clutch and the brake peddle, if the gear stick still wont go into place, Do NoT force it, remove your feet from the clutch and gear after each other and try again. I have found that there is something about the brake peddle, that must be a safety mechanism, so that you don’t accidentally put it into reverse while driving. I have never came across this in any other car to this severity and found it unusual at first but has now become second nature. It doesn’t happen every time I start the car. Great car other wise for a good price.

Suzuki Swift sport 1.6 2010

4 star review

Superb car in every respect; looks, performance, comfort, reliability, BUT has one major drawback, namely tyre size. NO spare wheel, of any size, is supplied, which is bad enough, but the crime is compounded by the lunatic choice of 195/45 tyre size. This was originally made only by Goodyear, and although other makes are now on the scene, availability is extremely limited. When faced with serious tyre damage, how to keep mobile? My (very costly) solution was to change to readily available 205/40, and carry a spare wheel in the (already tiny) boot; at least any tyre problem now only involves a 10min wheel change.

Suzuki Swift 1.6 Sport 2010

5 star review

I’ve just got the 1.6 Sport 2010 in black, full leather trim. It looks great and goes like stink on the back roads. A bit noisy on long runs but very comfy. I love this little car, my wife and daughter also have one, the 1.3 and 1.5 - we are the Swift Family Gibson!

Suzuki Swift 1.3 petrol 2010

4 star review

Got a 1.3 litre petrol Swift a short time ago. Peppy, nimble, good mileage, reasonably roomy, slightly noisy at speed, good road-holding. Fully satisfied so far an improvement on the old Swift. Suzuki are the biggest assemblers in my country but have a reputation for rough and ready work, this cannot be said for the new Swift.
