Daewoo Nexia Hatchback
  • Economy

    Value

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Comes well loaded for the money £300 I paid.

    Costs

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Fuel economy could be better and cost of repairing electrical fault after only 3months is uneconomical. Also Mk2 Astra used less fuel.

  • On the road

    Driving

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Drives like a MK2 Astra.

    Performance

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Ok if thrashed, but MK2 Astra performance is way superior.

  • Living with it

    Attracts scorn and general ridicule reminds me of my old Skoda favorite. Which incidently was as economical and more reliable and not much slower.

    Comfort

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Same as MK2 astra but with all the creature comforts.
