Finally, a japanese car!

[C1Rob]

So, i just picked up my first japanese car!

Its a Suzuki Ignis sport from 2003. (also know as suzuki swift sport ht81s in japan).

Has 150.000 km on it.

Its a pretty cool car and ive been looking at getting one for 4 years now...

its a 1.5 Ma15 engine with 107hp, the car weighs 910kg, 7k rpm redline start. 4k to 7k VVTI powerband

It handles amazing!

Some pictures (and thats my bike next to it aswell. These first pictures are from when i looked at it yesterday and the last 2 are of it at home)









Has some small things:

Crack in the windshield, gonna see if i can get it replaced via insurance
airco doesnt work
2 small dents in the hood (which someone painted with "original color" paint...)

My day was fine till i saw i had caught a screw in my tire on the way home... The tire was as good as new aswell... Just put a rubber plug in it, ill see how long it will last.

Not bad mate, nice wee little car

Thnx

I wanted a smaller car, as i basically rode my bike the last 6 months and hardly used my car. (and road tax is based on car weight/ fuel type here...)

Didnt last long sadly, I sold this end of januari and bought an Audi A2 1.4 TDI.

I changed jobs and drive 160km a day now XD

1:10 - 1:14 and euro 98 is a bit too expensive doing 800 km a week...

Can see where you are coming from, fuel prices are going to being killer doing that kinda of mileage :O

Yea its insane.

I started 01-01-2018, bought the around 06-02-2018 and have done 15.000 km since then on the A2 XD
