USED Daihatsu Sirion Hatchback (98 - 05)

Buy this car

What Car? says

2 out of 5 stars

For It's got distinctly quirky looks, it's well-equipped and cheap to buy and run

Against The Sirion is noisy, has a cheap interior and doesn't drive very well

Verdict It's decent if you rate value and style over ability; pretty much useless if you don't

Go for… 1.3 SL

Avoid… F-Speed auto/4track models

1. The materials in the cabin are of poor quality
2. The brittle suspension is damaged easily by careless driving, so check it carefully on a test drive
3. Only a buy a car with a full service history. If regular maintenance is skimped, coolant leaks can occur
4. If the clutch cable breaks, it can damage the gearbox, so ensure it has been regularly maintained
5. Pay attention to the ride on a test drive. It's too firm for many people's tastes
