2000 Daewoo Lanos SX 4dr Sedan
Review
I just purchased my Lanos SX on Ebay
about two weeks ago. I've put nearly
1,000 miles on it already. The car was
a steal. $4350 for a LOADED three year
old car with only 3,150 miles on it.
It's too bad that Daewoo went under. I
was expecting a slow car with the
automatic tranny. Now I'm looking to
install a cruise control to keep my
speeds in check. Fit and finish is
superb, the car is quiet on the
highway. I've caught myself running
upwards of 80 mph without realizing
it. Fuel economy is in the mid 30's -
again not bad for an automatic.

Review
This car has not given me any problems
whatsoever. It's fun to drive,
surprisingly roomy, fairly good on gas,
and offers a lot of features for an
unbelievably low price. I live in
South Carolina and I've driven this car
to New Jersey, Alabama, Florida, and
Washington DC without any problems.
I've kept the car properly maintained
and it has never let me down. Of
course, a Daewoo Lanos Hatchback is NOT
a BMW 5-Series, but for $9000, I
definitely got more than my money's
worth. Great car!

The car is great on the road, good on
turns. It feels larger inside than it
looks on the outside. Bought it through
ebay, didn't know what is was like,
never drove one before. I was really
suprised at the handleing, great car.

My opinion is that cars depreciate so
I'm not going to spend a lot of money
and it has to get me from point A to B
with dependability and economy. This
car fills the bill. When you sit
behind the wheel you don't feel like
you are in a tin box. My warranty was
purchased through General Motors. Had
some transmission slippage problems but
dealership caught it on regular
servicing and resolved with no cost or
hassle to me whatsoever.

I'm glad that all these other people
have had good results with their
Daewoo's, but I have had nothing but
problems. My car's engine keeps having
power problems and nobody can fix it.
Now I find out that Daewoo is bankrupt
and due to the bankruptcy is not making
anymore parts for their cars. If
something breaks your local Daewoo
dealer had better still have the part
in stock because otherwise you will no
be able to get the part. Be safe do not
but a Daewoo!

this vehicle has been poor from the
word go. It has been hard on brakes
and tires; has exhibited much less than
expected fuel economy, and when
warranty parts were required, they were
not available anywhere in the country,

I was pleasantly surprised by the
quality and performance of my Daewoo
Lanos, especially since the car was so
inexpensive. The car is extremely
responsive and handles excellently.
The interior is comfortable and
tastefully laid out. I do a lot of
interstate/highway driving with some
city driving, and my gas mileage is
excellent. I shopped around extensively
when I purchased my Lanos, and I have
not been disappointed with my choice. I
think the Lanos is an outstanding value
given its performance, design,
features, and price.

So far, the experience with my Lanos
has been excellent, other than three
things.
#1.) The passenger seat seatbelt gets
too tight as the car travels and
refuses to loosen if you pull the
strap.
#2.) The air conditioning unit appears
to leak water inside on the passenger
side floor.
#3.) The chrome colored paint is
coming off the hubcaps.
Other than these three items, I am very
satisfied with the excellent
performance of my vehicle.
