I’ve just passed 200 000ks now, with NO PROBLEMS AT ALL! Most economical and reliable car I’ve ever had, for me and my wife.

Frankly, I don’t know why most of you guys are losing your heads just because it’s made in South Korea – They make good stuff nowadays with their leading technology. I’m appauled at your ignorance and bigotry.

We got rid of commodore to purchase a matiz.This proved to be an excellent move.Its about time aussies realized the benefits of small cars. I ask how many of the critics of cars such as the matiz are now having trouble with the cost of fuel or are their egos so big they they dont notice it

A lot of you are putting down the Matiz saying it dose’nt compare to Euro cars, but you forget or don’t know, that the Chevy Matiz as it is known over there, is a big seller in Europe, I have know doubt that the new model will be too.
It would be welcome here in Australia, we have a Matiz in the family and it is a good little car.

My son still owns a Matiz after 8 years. It has 150,000 km, never misses a beat, goes well, has great paint and no rust. This car has saved us a fortune in fuel and maintenance. It also has dual air bags which we haven’t used yet. I had to ditch my Commodore with less mileage than this as there was always a $1,000+ problem every service. Bring back the Matiz.

Happy will I be on the day that Australians see more than just Hoden (GM) and Ford. I suspect that ignorance and lack of choice still is the rule around here. One day, one day.
