Daewoo Matiz SE 5-door Reviews

I love my daewoo matiz! I have a small child (14 months) and struggled to find a car seat to fit in the back - but then found that £40 one from argos was perfect. Also I can fit an umberella fold buggy in the boot...I did manage to just fit in there a 3 wheeler travel system but to do that I had to take the parcel shelf ...  Read the complete review

I passed my driving last year but bought a daewoo matiz se + 1998 model. One thing i must say , this car smells the pertrol, not consume. Its so efficient, due to 800cc engine which does not consume much petrol. Usually £10 of petrol lasts my a 2 weeks with travel to 1 place of work everyday. The car is very small from outside but its ...  Read the complete review

In July 2003 after my old car gave up the ghost I wanted to get a car that would look and perform better than the last few cars I had. I could not afford a new car so I thought I would look around and not make a hasty decision. I visited a garage in Great Yarmouth,they were a Vauxhall dealer and I looked around. Eventually a salesman came ...  Read the complete review

I recently passed my driving test and up until now have been as most new drivers do trying to decide on what car to buy. Many people always recommend a Vauxhall Corsa, Fiat Punto or Volkswagen Polo for a first car so I looked up these. I was not really sure what to get so I scanned the autotrader to see if there were any good deals coming up and I ...  Read the complete review

When I was learning to drive this time last year, I really needed a small, cheap, first-time buyer type car, something that wasn't going to cost thousands to insure. As I am under 25, insurance is automatically expensive anyway, without having a big expensive car. When I went to a local dealership, accompanied by my Dad and Fiancé, I ...  Read the complete review

I used to have a huge Ford Granada Scorpio so, when I had to rent a Matiz, it was a culture shock! I rented one for 2 weeks in all, then sold the Scorpio and bought a brand new gold Matiz SE in September 2002 for 4900 pounds from Trade Sales in Slough (the Daewoo dealer next door wanted 6000 pounds for the same car!). It's an import from ...  Read the complete review

one bitten twice shy until they get their act together regarding after sales servicing - Advantages: parks anywhere legal, nippy in town, at home on narrow country roads - Disadvantages: poor build quality, materials poor, after sales service terrible

One year ago March 2001 , after careful consideration, we purchased a brand new Daewoo matiz se plus for 8000 pounds on the advice given by the Daewoo sales-team in Colwick Nottingham that all servicing costs including parts and labour would be included for three years. My daughter had purchased the same model a year previous to this and ...  Read the complete review

I have given my Daewoo a little name; 'Maureen the lawn mower'! Now don't get me wrong, I love it! I have the new shape model (M150) as its known in the trade - the cute Matiz was facelifted late in 2000, and remains Daewoo's most popular model. It comes in at around £6,500, (I paid almost £7,200! - because of alarm & audio ...  Read the complete review

The good old Daewoo Matiz. My very kind mother and me have the fortune of part owning this magnificent specimen of a car. It truly is the modernised version of the classic mini, economical, compact and not too bad to look at. I have only got a T registered model, so I am not quite up to date. However from my experience this car is as sound as ...  Read the complete review

it was an insy winsy teeny weeny yellow polka dot bikini, that she wore for the first time that day. he was crazier than a coconut, and he ate jupiter food such as geese teeth which are highly nutritional, as they contain lots of protein and iron. his name is arthur and he dances on the sand, with a little bit of goose and a ...  Read the complete review

We have a large estate car for ferrying our three kids and pram around, but I wanted a little car for doing the school run in. After looking round garages and reading through the newspapers for a low mileage used car my husband suggested we buy one from new! From new I thought, has he lost his senses or had he won the lotto without ...  Read the complete review

OOOH lucky ol' me. I got a brand spanking new Daewoo Matiz for my 21st birthday. Grand. Ah, but I see you're eager to know more. Well hold your horses and I'll tell you all about the Matiz. THE MATIZ SE EXTRA: Is wot I've got. The SE is the basic model in the Matiz range, meaning it comes without all the extra bits and ...  Read the complete review

Every one on the road wants to overtake the Daewoo Matiz, it must be because it is small and therefore considered to be slow, but not so. Granted the acceleration is not fast but it gets up there in the end, and once there holds it's speed. Cornering is fantastic once you have mastered the power steering, and I have found I can out corner ...  Read the complete review

I bought one of these babies 6 months ago for my wife, and I can't get near it. As with most people, price is a major factor when buying a car and the matiz scores heavily in this. Overall, the car has good all round vision, nice handling, and is comfortable. Twin air bags also help to make it very safe. Daewoo put a ...  Read the complete review

I bought my Matiz after my car accident. I was short of cash & this offered everything! A spacious mini car, 5 door hatchback & all the extras made it worthwhile! I appreciate the servicing & warrenty, as this is always an expense that comes at the wrong time, but Daewoo cover all that in the price! A nippy little car, it ...  Read the complete review

6 months ago, I drove around an old y reg ford sierra, she may not have been modern but she was reliable. However all good things must come to an end, and with MOTs costing over £200 it was time to buy a new car. I used to awake in a sweat, dreaming that my new purchase would end up like a concrete millstone around my neck, such and such this ...  Read the complete review

OK, it was bought for my sister, not me, but I get to go on her insurance. For young people such as myself, getting insurance for any car (let alone a decent one) below £1000 is a nightmare. With the Matiz , however, I have a brand new car for a good price and low premiums. I'm 6ft 2", so when I first saw the car I thought ...  Read the complete review

If money is tight, you could do a lot worse than the Daewoo Matiz. Styled in Italy, the cheeky looks of this car is enough for it to sell in the thousands! The overall package of the car means that it is a winner. The basic model (SE) costs just £6,595! The top of the range SE Plus costs a very inexpensive £7,295. That includes two ...  Read the complete review
