1.6DDIS Allgrip SZ5 Rugged Pack

Nice to drive - totally unreliable otherwise

I could write reams and reams about the problems with this car, two clutches, two dual mass flywheels, engine out twice, new rear axle as built out of alignment and scrubbed two rear tyres, and, take a breath, now an "urgent software update" "to improve real world driving emissions" - read into that what you will.

How many times has it gone round the clock, you will probably ask. Not once I will respond, it has only just gone onto 30,000 miles and is only two and a half years old. And it has been well looked after too.

Oh, and the change to a thinner gearbox oil and another modification to try to sort out a r****** from new gear change.

ALL WORK has been done under warranty by Suzuki, other than replacing the two underbody protection panels that came off when driving through some standing water during heavy rain.

Otherwise, economical and not a bad drive, even quite sporty in sport mode.
