Daihatsu Charade 1.0 EL 5-Door 2003

4 star review

The ride is very good and the cornering excellent for a car of this type. I like the interior design and find the car spacious and comfortable. The instruments are most pleasing. The engine is superb in providing good lugging power with free-revving zip when required. The gearchange is superb and high fifth gives relaxed cruising. The styling is pleasantly functional. It is hard to identify a better car of its type and time. It’s just a pity more people didn’t buy them because if they had spares would be more plentiful and therefore cheaper. Not many pattern parts are available.

Daihatsu Charade 1987

3 star review

Small and economical, new ones are better than Prius and much cheaper, I hope the quality has improved and the handling, the older ones I have been in have rattled so much and been so noisy that my old 1972 Austin Maxi seemed like a Rolls after travelling in the Daihatsu`s, I might consider a Charade or similar, but am still inclined towards a Citroen for a small economy car.

Daihatsu Charade 1.0 2007

3 star review

I bought this car to use as a runaround. It is pretty cheap and I guess that you get what you pay for. The term basic sums up the Charade pretty well but the fuel economy could make this an appealing proposition for some drivers. I think that a Citroen C1 or Toyota Aygo may have been a better choice.

Daihatsu Charade 1.0 5 dr

4 star review

I’m very pleased with my car, it’s proved itself to be very reliable and is very cheap to run. For a car of it’s price you get everything you need and whilst the interior is best described as practical, it is certainly comfortable.
