Daewoo Espero 2.0 CDXi 4d (1997/R) Owner Review
-
Economy
Value
Excellent value.
Costs
Repairs a little pricey, but quite low fuel consumption for the size of the thing. Insurance cheap.

On the road
Driving
Not bad, but certainly not exciting. Handling left a lot to be desired.
Performance
Quite weak for a 2-litre, but it was as happy loaded down the axels as it was empty and still managed to cruise on the motorways.
-
Living with it
Reliability
No serious problems so far.
Image
Better than a Cavalier.
Comfort
Air-con and CD, but seat a bit narrow.

Security and Service
Security
The thieves seemed to be able to leave it alone.
Service
Daewoo strike me as well-meaning but chaotic.
