Daewoo Nexia Hatchback

    Value

    5 out of 5 5.0

    A lot of car for very little money.

    Costs

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Parts specific to Daewoo can be expensive, everything held over from the Vauxhall Astra range (about 60% of car) are very cheap.

    Image

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Looks a bit dated - old Astra shape, but the re-modeled Daewoo did look good to me!

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Driver and front passenger well cared for with comfy seats, steering column and seat height adjustable, rear seat nothing special.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Door locks poor. In-built immobiliser is ok, but not highly thought of by experts.

    Service

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Local dealership totally useless - take it to a Vauxhall specialist.
