Used 1995 Saturn S-Series Consumer Reviews
Great Value
When we bought ours in 1995, there was only one other wagon on the market to compete. But the Ford Escort felt a lot more fragile than the Saturn. We've put 149000 kms (93000 miles) on our SW1 and have very few complaints. What did go wrong? The rear window fluid switch crapped out at 100000 kms That's it! There's not a lot of power put out by the little SW1 power plant and, when loaded up, it's a real tortoise. But, it looks great, can carry loads of gear, great on fuel economy, and has been a very reliable car - seeing 5 Canadian west coast winters and now onto its 3 Canadian prairie winters (can you say, cold and snow!)
95 Saturn SL2
Great car. Liked my '92 SL2 so much, bought my wife the '95 SL2.
Best Car Ever
this was my first car and i miss it sooo much. it had 250,000 miles on it when the transmission went and i couldnt afford to fix it. great little car with awesome gas millage. would give anything to have it back.
A little good a little bad
I bought this Saturn at 100k and drove it for five years. I had to put a lot of money in up front (new tires, struts, some transmission work). Engine always ran fine. Metal shield on the bottom kept having to be re-riveted after it would start an awful rattle. City mileage 19(winter) to 25 (summer) in Chicago. A little too long but excellent cargo capacity. Eventually sold it to the mechanic after the alternator failed at 150k. Rugged basics, but many little repairs over time, EGR valve, front calipers, tie-rod, CV joint, corroded connecting between cat and muffler, fan belt wheel, etc...so heart of the car was solid, death by pin-pricks.
This care changed my view of Saturn!
I am a very stuburn person when it comes to cars. I dislike American cars and I never wanted one. But I wanted a car fast so i bought the 1995 Saturn SC2 and it changed my view of Saturn forever. It is a great car. It is fun to drive, has good feul economy and it looks good as well. I would recommend the car for a person who is looking for their first car.
