Love My Saturn
This is my second Saturn-- I started with a SL-2 (4-door)-- the LW200 is very roomy and comfortable, it holds a lot of groceries, karate equipment, baseball equipment, and family & friends. This is the first car I have owned that has a remote keyless entry-- I LOVE THAT!!!-- The only thing I would change, if asked, would be for it to have a V-6 3.0 litre engine. Other than that, I wouldn't trade it for the world!!! :-)
Reliability issues make this one to avoid
After a long line of Fords, I expected better from this car, but have been disappointed. After 28 months, the following things have broken: key ignition unit, cruise control and recently the catalytic converter, which cost me almost $1,000. None of the above have been covered under warranty. Other minor yet ongoing complaints include a quirky remote alarm, partly broken driver's side power seat, loose front passenger's seat upholstery, and a broken arm rest. Can't wait to trade this one in, and it won't be for another Saturn.

LW200: Solid value
The LW200 offers a good array of standard features (traction control, side airbags, etc.), good size/interior dimensions, and top-of-its-class fuel economy for a very competitive price. It is not a luxury ride, and its build quality is only fair. But it has provided reliable, economical transportation. Recommended.
1 Year Later, Still Happy
Bought a LW200 June 2001 for my wife and new baby. Over the past year we've put on modest mileage (6500 miles). I too bought the wagon with the 60 month 0.9% interest. Overall, I'm really happy with the purchase. The wagon is very roomy, sporty, and a great value. The 4 cyl engine is very quiet and refined & fine for both city and highway driving. The stock Firestone tires have got to go though. I had a leaky one and took it back to Saturn two months after purchase. Saturn said I hit something, so I had to purchase a new one for $110. Not exactly the Saturn service experience I expected. Tires aside, a great vehicle.
A great midsize wagon, well priced
My wife and I needed a wagon with a new baby, big enough to haul 4 adults plus baby stuff, affordable and fun to drive. The Saturn LW200 fit the bill perfectly as I didn't need AWD, didn't want a turbo, and required something wider than the compact wagons that are cheaper.
