Gee whiz Graham - I was the General Manager of Suzuki Australia in the 2000's and this Swift was the turning point for Suzuki in Australia. I was close to the development team in Japan and remember their plans to target Europe with this car. Hence its handles well and its fun to drive and, of course its build in Japan so it has great build quality. We hardly spent anything on warranty. I have a Swift because it my reminds of a great time in my automotive career. they are still fun to drive......
Yeah,my daughter n son have both owned a couple of these....nothing much ever seemed to go wrong with them n were sold fast. Good little city cars!@@xacoupeguy
I'm hearing you Graham. Went to SA for the HR nationals, got back to NSW and immediately fell sick. Recovered for a week but crook again! Not well enough to work on cars yet. Covid neg. You start to get sick of being sick! Hope you recover quickly. Always good to see a different type of project! Great to hear the EJ is getting painted!
I’ve done a couple of these, more fun to drive than expected. Quick tip, some new gloss black vinyl wrap over the faded A & B pillar trims makes a huge difference.
Good luck with the car flipping idea Graeme hope it works out for you This wog going around is a bugger I think I have had it now on and off for at least 4 weeks and it’s still hanging on I have given up on having a project now and just focus on my work and I hope to spend my money on small holidays
