Customers say
The Suzuki Samurai is most loved for its remarkable off-road capabilities and fun driving experience, especially in rugged terrains. Owners appreciate its reliability, low maintenance costs, and fuel efficiency. However, many dislike its cramped interior, lack of power on highways, and a bumpy ride that can be uncomfortable during longer trips. Overall, it's a great choice for off-road enthusiasts looking for an affordable and reliable adventure vehicle.

The Suzuki Samurai, the last uk version of the Suzuki manufactured jeeps which originated in the late 1940s. Fitted with a 1.3 fuel injection engine, the Samurai was also the most powerfull of the "jeep" style Suzukis. Very similar in design to the traditional land-rover vehicles, but simplified - lighter, smaller and much more capable off-road (and on) than the series Land-rovers on which the designs were based. I have driven many 4x4 vehicles both on and off road, and I have to say the Samurai is the most capable in standard form. This is unless you are towing a large load, where a bigger engine and more weight are a must. There are many spares available, and at very modest prices. Modification parts are also available off the shelf and are manufactured by most of the leading modification manufacturers. As far as on the road driving goes, you dont buy a Samurai if you are going to be driving miles every day. The ride is harsh and bouncy, the steering is vague, and performance is hardly sports-car like, however show it some mud and you'll have a grin from ear to ear. Modify it for off-road use and only your lack of driving skill will stop it, not the terrain. If you are looking to get into off-roading for fun, then this is the only vehicle to buy. Easy to drive, cheap to buy, reliable, easy to keep running, and so popular you usually get your purchase price back when you sell it...

This is not a death trap! I drove this thing over and through everything. You have to do something stupid to flip it! It does leave you wanting a lot more in the power department, but it is so incredibly reliable it isn;t funny. Plus a 10 mm and 12 mm wrench will pretty much disassemble the whole thing! Highly Recommend

I had an 88, which was not an option. A cute, but small 4X4, this is the little SUV that could. She could go places in 2WD that bigger $WDs wouldn't tread. I drove it sideways up a 75 degree incline. So steep, I could reach over and touch the ground through the passenger's window. The engine was terribly slow, but the 30MPG was great. When I literally threw a piston, it still went, and I was able to overtake a car that was preventing me from merging onto the shoulder. After towing it 100 miles, and it losing all of it's oil along the way, it still cranked and drove to th backyard to be repaired. The braking was poor. But, it was stable, and very fun to drive, especially with the tops off.
