Default Thoughts on Suzuki Vitara?

Posting on behalf of A'K cant be bothered pi55ing about logging out and in as him and back in as me.......

The misses is nearing the end of her driving lessons so it won't be long
till she wants a motor. She wants a small 4x4 so the only thing in my
price bracket is a Vitara (1.5 - 2K limit) I've heard there no very
resalable but in what way... Has anyone had any experiences with them?

I kinda like the Fatboy versions so might be interested in them...
(like them as a kid growing up)

My neighbour had one and when it wasn't sat on his driveway while he curst it was at the garage having this or that fixed.

When he eventually sold it he got alot les than he thought he put it down to it's unreliable image.

Utter, utter, total and complete, without any reasonable doubt, sh*te!

Being a (now ex) mechanic I've driven a few cars and never have I driven anything that feels less connected to it's wheels! Absolutely dreadfull, I wouldn't reccomend anyone to get one never mind a new driver!

Has she thought about a Rav4, they're pretty cool and drive well

Mate had one,he bought it off his birds relative.Its was a right pile of **** there was allways something wrong with it,brakes failing,steering etc.....It got that bad after owning it about 6 weeks he took it back 2 his lasses relatives and demanded his cash back for it,which in turn caused a big row with him and his bird and they split up!
