Strange no comments negative or positive I'll take it that Suzuki Swift Sports in the UK are uninteresting. :confused: I know it's not a Vauxhall product.

If there is nothing nice worth saying, don't say anything at all...

J.k. ;)

Nice ride, only not too keen on the wheels.

I really like the wheels standard rims but bespoke paint job to match the colour of the car normally they are just silver
But at least now a comment on the car.
Thanks Krsa2000

I must say when I first saw photos of the car I was also a bit not sure about the wheel colour but when you see the car in real the look a lot better.

Really nice car, always liked the shape of the new swifts. Not keen on the wheels, would look better all anthracite but that's just my opinion:)

I really like the colour.. :thumb:

That graphic has a touch of Abarth about it, too...

Wheels are fine, maybe a solid colour...

For me I can't get past the head lights, they just seem to go on forever.

The only problem is I can't drive it just now :cry:, as the same day I bought it I lost my Passport and without a passport I can't register it in my name !.
It's no Hot Hatch by today's standards with only 134BHP but it's going to be fun to drive with only just over 1000Kg.

I bet it handles tight round the corners! What power does it have? The old swift 1.3 gti was popular here I think 0-60 was 8.9 seconds which was quick on a 1992 car and reved to 8k! But sadly they had mega rust problems on the floor pan etc.

EwanG They only have 134 BHP and a 0 to 60 around 8.6 so it's no going to set the tarmac on fire but a good match to the Mini Copper at a fraction of the price plus it is on a set of Nurbrugring Bilstein adjustable suspension.

Sometimes we look only at how much power a car has and not how much fun is it to drive. I've gone from a 2008 Subaru WRX to the Sport as the WRX was fast but did not make me smile when driving it unlike my old 1999 Subaru GT Turbo which was far more fun to drive than the over weight 2008 model.

Well had the Terrier a short time now, don't drive it that much as I cycle to work every day now but when I do get to drive it LOVE IT, it brings a big smile to my face every time.
It really has brought the fun back in to driving just goes to show you don't need loads of BHP to make a grate fun car.
