Daewoo Matiz reviews

I have driven for 290k miles. The engine is a bit noisy and slower, and it's very light but ok. I underestimated it but I'm loving it.

Mileage on the vehicle is 290k. Engine runs with some level of noise but that's understandable considering the mileage. Consumes fuel more than it's supposed to but manageable. Not a bad car.

Becoming increasingly unreliable in the the last twelve months also had very intermittent fault which garage failed to trace ,costing me lots of money in labour charges. will be looking to change the vehicle next year

The Matiz is a fantastic town car, with 5 seats in a tiny body and still room for a reasonable amount of shopping or luggage in the boot. Its compact size (width as well as length) makes it very easy to park and visibility is good. And even with a tiny engine it has plenty of energy (unless you happen to have 5 big adults in the car!). This car proves you can pack a lot into a small space - if only all compact cars could be designed this cleverly.

I had this car from new and am very pleased with it so far.Yes I wish sometmes it had more oomph but for the miles and journeys i do it is more than adequate.the one thing I have which every car should be fitted with is rear sensors,fantastic when parking.It also has a small turning circle which makes it very manoevreable

The car suits my purposes (short distance driving) very well. It's proved economic to run and has been very reliable over the 10+ years I've owned it. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles of more modern cars, but it's easy to get in and out of (important as one gets older!).

Only any good as a town car, tiny good for parking, but not very economical. not a good car if you are interested in street gred!
