  Tough little car - 2000 Suzuki Vitara
  By Spud - July 11 - 1:46 am

  I bought this car used, and rolled it over 100,000 miles. Currently, its 115,500 miles, and its still going strong. Ive had to replace the computer system, but thats the only major maintenance its needed. I dont service it as often as I should, but its a very forgiving vehicle.

  Run around, over and through - 2000 Suzuki Vitara
  By JM Hufstedler - April 2 - 9:33 pm

  I bought my Suzuki with 850 miles on it and after 4 years and 60,000 miles it has never disappointed me once. Not in snow, heat, short jaunts or long highway trips. The back seat is cramped, but theres tons of headroom and at 61" I always have plenty of leg room in either of the front seats. Ive had no body or engine complaints, and the interior material is incredibly durable and cleans up nicely.
