New Suzuki Vitara?

Having had Honda cars for a number of years I now find I need a small AWD and am bitterly disappointed that the UK HR-V will not be one. The only one I find that fits my remit is the Suzuki Vitara. Will I be disappointed if I swap? Will the Vitara be as reliable?

The UK HR-V may eventually be offered with AWD, but Honda concentrates on keeping its Euo average CO2 as low as possible and that has already precluded the HR-V 1.8 i-VTEC. The Vitara 4WD is actually very good. It rides better than the 2WD and even grips better on corners than the 2WD: www.honestjohn.co.uk/road-tests/suzuki/suzuki-vita.../
