I would like to point out that this is the best car I have ever driven. The biggest pro is that it will NEVER I mean NEVER leave you stranded on the road. It is a car that actually doesn't brake down by itself on any account. (except for the battery which lasts 3 years to the day, but that will be one very cold Monday morning in front of your home, so you'll be safe). The only thing that broke down by itself was some plastic ring on the gearshift after the second year and the Suzuki service replaced it within 2 minutes and it never happened again. The engine has 120HP and its very powerful for that chassis so you can overtake any slow vehicle, just shift one gear down press on the accelerator and off you go. There are strong front and rear disk brakes, so don't worry about stopping after you overtake, it simply stops in a second. The seating is very comfortable for its class and long hours on the seats are not a problem, for front and rear. There is nice cubicle forming after you fold the rear seats twice. It is flat and spacy, you can fit in a washing machine easyly with extra space on the side and on top. It is very practical for those handyman jobs for your cottage or the house that you rent. With couple of crossbars on the rooftop for the long ladder or planks. With the 250L luggage compartment you can pack four adults, but only if they pack Japanese style with four softbags and four rucksacks, up to the lid. It can fit one child family with the trolley in the front passenger seat, luggage in the trunk and smalls on the lid over the trunk. But for two child family there must be extra luggage space on the roof rack, the trunk will only fit the two trolleys. Yet again SX4 is a city car. The only design flaw, actually the only three design flaws of this car are divided in one big, one small and one optional flaw. The big one is that this car has an A,B,C and D pillar post holding the roof. The B post is the bugger. It can hide a pedestrian when he doesn't present himself at the zebra and just walkes through, he can appear just before your front when its actually too late. Or it can obstruct a whole car coming from left or right. So you have to be very carefull at those zebra crossings and crossings without trafic lights, just look around the B post if there is anyone out there. Roundabouts are not a problem. The small one is that this car is designed for a four wheel drive and if you buy a two wheel drive like myself, you will find the brake pad on the driver's side wearing out much quicker than the one on the passengers side. For the same issue I would reccomend to change to Michelin tires as they are traditionally with soft grip to overcome the front wheels spinning out of control when you try come up or down an large incline. The optional one is try to get any colour besides gray, because it melts down with the asfalt when low visibility appers, combined with the strong brakes, it is very easy for some reckless driver to hit you from the behind. It happened to me three times so far. Hence I try not to make rapid brakes in strong trafic. The Suzuki service is cheap as well as the parts and you need it for regular maintanence. The only way the Suzuki service will make money out of you is if you have a car accident. The fuel consumption on this engine is around 8 l/100km for urban drive and 5.5 l/100km for extra urban with 90km/h and 6.5 with 120km/h. But if you are keen on pressing the pedal it can become very thirsty well in exess of these values. All in all this is an excellent car which I never plan to sell, because hothing can go wrong with it and its very practical.

This is my second Suzuki, I like the raised driving position as I suffer from Arthritis in my spine and I find that this car is perfect for me as I can get in it and not down into it, the reverse when getting out of the car as I just swing my legs round and leave the vehicle

I am referring to the new model, it is so different to the old SX4 - 49 mpg from new, quieter, smoother, disregard any negative comment from "professional" reviewers, just get one - value for money!!!

The SX4 is a very comfortable fairly economic car with decent performance and has proved very reliable. The boot is a bit lacking in space but probably the biggest issue is the blind spot caused by the A pillars at the front of the car. As its is the XEC model it has a good range of standard equipment including SAT NAV, Bluetooth and Air conditioning.

An excellent diesel engine (Fiat - Italian) in a highly functional vehicle (built in Hungary). High build quality, well finished,comfortable and reliable whilst returning 53 m.p.g from new (has now covered some 15,000 miles)- very good for a two litre engine and with 4 wheel drive capability when needed. And it even has a spare wheel - albeit a space saver but nevertheless far better than an inflator bottle. John Clarke, (Dr.)

this nifty 4x4 does the job - and more - of a much bigger vehicle. having previously owned a Freelander and a Gran Vitara ..and needing a 4x4 .....i decided on the SX4 with 4x4 capability. And what a great choice! the proof of the pudding was a drive up to Mull, on the west coast of Scotland. A very comfortable ride on long distances,while nippy in urban areas, very economical and capable of taking a full 3 weeks worth of holiday gear!I will be taking it abroad next spring and conf=idently expect it to 'do the business' !!

Average performance and cheap to run.Exceptionaly good climate control and not one fault in over 2 years of ownership. Easy to get in and out of for an old git like myself but could do with a larger boot space.Exceptionaly good on fuel 45-50+ mpg on mixed roads. Used as a second vehicle to a camper van

Nice little car. The colour is a terracotta colour and it is admired wherever we go for some reason. A neighbour kept stopping to look at it and the next news he had bought just the same model and colour. it performs well and our petrol consumption has gone down from our Grand Vitara.

SX4 Does the job.

This car has been very reliable, only costs being servicing and 2 tyres. The press at the time it was launched did not have a good word for it but we have had no problem with it other than a slightly unsettled ride We've got a constant 39 to 41mpg and I find the car lively for a 1.6 it has a large boot which takes 4 suitcases and has loads of kit as standard its so good I have ordered a new sx4 S cross!

Very comfortable car with good performance and reasonable economy. Only real down side is the A Pillars are quite thick and do give blind spots in some road conditions. Suzuki cars are quite underrated possibly due to quite high servicing costs.

This is the third SX4 that I have owned and the last of this model, SX4 S-Cross is now out. Handling is good as is performance, 120 bhp is a good power/weight ratio. Only niggle is the thick front pillar, but you get used to it and compensate!

I'm older, knees starting to fail, so like the raised ride height, easy to get in and out. As usual these days the quoted fuel consumption figures are impossible to achieve. I always managed to better them in previous cars. The ride is firm and I like it that way. It's good for two but the lack of bottom end torque makes it a pain uphill and with any load up. That said a decent 1.6 engine seems to be disappearing from many ranges. Bring back the Primera 1.6, the best car I have ever owned and without doubt the comfiest seats of any car I have ridden in! All in all it's a good value for money car, has given us good service and our local dealer is an absolute star!

Perky for a small engined car, comfortable & above all FANTASTIC in the snow. I bought this car after three bad winters to cope with the drifts. It's been just great in every department!
