  Its a Great Car - 2000 Daewoo Leganza
  By pondlily - November 1 - 2:00 am

  Pros: I have had this car for almost 3 years and have absolutely no complaints about reliability or performance. I have had to do nothing to it except for scheduled maintenance. It is a very good looking car, right up there with the more expensive models. Cons: The gas mileage is mediocre in town but up to 29 mpg on the freeway. The radio needs to be replaced with a good one. The steering wheel hides the speedometer when it is in its lower positions. This car has been seriously maligned because of the bankruptcy of Daewoo, but the quality of the car speaks for itself. Now that GM is handling parts there should be no concern about service.

  Good, for now... - 2001 Daewoo Lanos
  By Daewho? - August 7 - 2:00 am

  I have had the car since 2001 with only 28 miles on it. I know have over 40,000 miles on it and the only problem I have had with it is replacing the upper coolant hose & O ring. Not bad, but I had to overnight the parts, otherwise it would take 4-5 days just to get the part. Plus, my dealrhsip doesnt deal with Daewoos anymore so if I need a repair I have to go somewhere else, and Daewoo dealers are getting scarece. I do enjoy the size, as I am in Chicago and parking there is tough, but not for me! And you cant beat $13 for gas each week, and I drive well over 200 miels a week.

  The Good and the Bad - 1999 Daewoo Lanos
  By birdgs - August 5 - 2:00 am

  I love driving my little sports car. Ive put over 49,000 miles on it and dont worry about the transmission or engine. The car is very responsive. Since owning the car, Ive had the battery replaced, and my air conditioning compressor has broke. It has been real hard find a salvage A/C compressor since I cant find brand new parts. Also, on windy days, the outside mirrors make terrible howling/whistling noises. Finally, I have a terrible rattle in the dash. It makes a lot of noise on all but the smoothest roads.

  Its really not bad! - 1999 Daewoo Lanos
  By experienceduser - July 7 - 2:00 am

  Id heard a lot of talking low about korean cars. But my daewoo lanos 99 surprised me. I bought it a pre-owned 3 years ago and have driven it over 36k. It never had a reliablity and quality problem. I recently drove it many times of long distance. It runs very smooth and accelates fast (imagine its a 95hp small car!). Its actually fun driving it.

  Zippy little car - 1999 Daewoo Lanos
  By LanosGrrl - July 1 - 2:00 am

  On the whole, I have enjoyed having this car (almost 5 years now). It is a zippy little car, although it lacks punch in its acceleration - you can hear the poor motor strain sometimes. The "power" button is fun to use, giving the car a jump ahead, but eats up fuel when used. My husband doesnt like the poor safety ratings of the car, but (knock on wood) I havent had to employ any of those features. I love the unique cloth on the seats - its a cool pattern! Over all, its been a good car with no major malfunctions. The only real downside: now its difficult to find a dealer and parts, thanks to their bankruptcy proceedings in the US.

  reliable, - 1999 Daewoo Nubira
  By pogo - May 31 - 2:00 am

  This car is very reliable. 65000km so far and noting wrong. Stable on the road like very few cars are. The look of the car is one of the best. Everything is in place and working well. Very secure! You need to learn how to drive it as it has a character of its own. Original tires arent the best, good tires make a big difference. Fuel consumption is about 10% higher than I would expect ei with air conditioner on 100% I have 11/10/8 per 100 km running on natural gaz.

  The Woo - 2000 Daewoo Nubira
  By Iceberg - May 29 - 2:00 am

  I love my Daewoo. I just wish that there were more dealerships. I would feel more comfortable about going on long trips. But my Woo is an excellent road trip car.
