Love My Lanos - Joy to own and drive

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.

Expensive Trouble

I bought this car used with 65,000 miles as a poor college student with high hopes after looking at all these positive reviews, but my experience has been anything but positive. I bought it for only $2,800, but have had to put literally half that into repairs. With only 72,000 miles on it, the engine had to be replaced because a piston broke. It was quite the ordeal to find someone with a used engine because parts for the Daewoo are not even being made anymore and very few people in the US are familiar with the cars.

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.

Lemon and Piece of Junk

This is the worst car in the world. I got this car after it had only 9K miles. Drove it for a while and all sorts of problems. Where do I start? First of all, it's not a very economical car and uses a lot of gas for its size. No power and it's very embarrassing to drive uphill especially if you have a couple of passengers. It acts like it has a motorcycle engine. Dashboard constantly shows Check Engine light which is very annoying. Battery dies constantly. I think there is major electrical issues with this car. Avoid this car at all cost people!
