After 15000 miles in 1.0 boosterjet mild Hybrid; UK SZ5 spec. Plenty of performance with great economy and excellent reliability.Cannot understand why this peppy engine was dropped from the range. 47mpg around town with 61+ on a longer run. Space upfront is fine, but a bit cramped in the rear seats for adults. Boot space is just average. Sat-Nav system is slow and looses signal too easily. Suspension is too unforgiving for the poor standard of average road surface in England..lots of bump and crash. Build quality is a bit lacking in comparison to other asian manufacturers, but you do get a lot of car for the money!

'Bang for the buck'. 2019. 28.000 km/17.500 miles. Danish top-spec(full LED, CC, adap. cruise, aut. lights). "+" : Overall feels like a bigger car(boxy, raked windscreen and headlights not 'stretched' = 'real' bonnet). Interior space fine in front(I'm 186 cm/6 feet). In back 'mediocre', as for the 7" infot. and speakers; I use Android Auto. 1.2 Dual-jet mild-hybrid running smooth and quiet. 27.2 km/l(2.8 UK mpg) town+motorway(max. 95 km/t, 60 mph) with 99% 'efficient' driving style(in-gear engine braking, coasting, high gears). Still fun to drive, though! Trailer hook boosting versatility. "-" : Clutch 'jagged' when cold - had it replaced, as Suzuki Denmark recognized it as a production failure. Still 'jagged', though! Body plates very thin - you can dent a front wing by leaning on it!

I've owned a lot of cars of all sizes, this era Swift is the nicest to live with on a daily basis. It is superb to drive, the 1.2 is more lively than you would expect. I have the 4x4 version which give a little extra road clearance, useful for the UK's undermaintained roads. A wheel at each corner gives superb handling. The interior is tardis like, plenty of leg room for all. It is OK on the motorway on longer journeys, but it can run out of puff when fully laden on longer steep climbs, occasionally requiring a downshift. The engine is all but silent at tickover, silky smooth and free revving when spinning up. It does not have a turbo, but acceleration is progressive through the whole rev range. It is what a modern replacment of the original classic mini should have been. I love it!

2015 1.2 Dualjet 4x4 SZ5. Good spec, Garmin design stereo satnav, full keyless entry, cruise & speed limiter. Auto climate control. Yeah some hard plastics but pleasant design which is standing the test of time. Owned since new and still looks like new. Easy to clean interior. Boot size is small, but to be expected. Fold seats down for larger items which is easily done. Always feel settled even on rough surfaces, poor roads are soaked up well. Driving in snow or ice is a pleasure as nothing phases it. Super reliable with bullet proof Japanese quality.
