The Suzuki Swift makes a versatile, unpretentious, stylish and very cool rival to the likes of the Mini. A fun and sporty ride combines with a great level of kit provided at a good price. Likely to appeal to many motorists from newly qualified young drivers looking for something with serious street cred to those looking for an economical and environmentally friendly commuter car or just run-about town small car. The Swift offers a no compromise approach to fuel economy, with the diesel model offering a great 62.8mpg combined and fits into tax band B without losing out on performance. Seriously loveable and because it is not as populous on the road as some of its rivals, it retains a sense of exclusivity. When admiring glances are forthcoming at the supermarket car park, you will be glad you opted for this little gem.

Road noise is fairly evident on the Swift especially at motorway speeds and some of the plastics used remind you of the budget bracket the car falls within. It is important to remember however that brand new, the Swift can be yours for less than £10,000 and there are few vehicles in this bracket which don’t in some way reveal their budget origins. You would expect a Swift to be very reliable indeed as tends to go hand in hand with cars from this Japanese manufacturer.
