The Vauxhall Agila is a small car that's surprisingly practical and has real personality. The cabin is spacious and well laid out, the car's good to drive, and there's a lifetime warranty.
Looks pricey against the near-identical Suzuki Splash and some of the plastics inside look cheap. Some rivals are better equipped for the mone

I quite like the indicator noise in my Suzuki Splash and it means I never forget that they're on.

The first generation was not very desirable, but this second generation (which never sold well, at least here in Ireland) was really underrated. The Opel version was better styled than the Suzuki. I think it's better than a lot of contemporary city cars.

They’ve essentially concluded that it does everything it should to a decent-good degree but it costs a little bit extra. Honestly I’d go for the splash, well I have one, it’s got stability control as standard on every model and 6 airbags as standard.

The sound well... Okay it is a bit annoying sometimes but all these tiny things as the rev counter and that sound make it a bit more unique. Doesn't drive bad at all and is pretty peppy with the 1.2; while for example the 1.2 Corsa is terribly slow. (Drove both)

My gf has that car from Opel and its terrible. I worked on many many cars but that one gave me the most pain. Yes it has much space and is pretty economic when it comes to gas. But there are so many technical and design flaws. Cant change the light bulbs in the front lights without disassembling the whole front and removing the headlights. Reverse gear is super sticky since they used wrong gears, the gearbox makes rattling noises, the clutch is super unresponsive. After all, its still just a Opel. =D Most reliable thing is the engine since its a suzuki.

I bought a AGILA 1.2 SE Auto 2013 four days ago. For my daughter and me, not more than 5,000 per year, it is a good car. Very soft to drive, comfortable. I like it. My only surprise is that they don´t have automatic lights? Am I wrong? Do I need to switch lights manually!!!!!! every single night?

Ideal for 6'4" blokes because the seat and area above your bonce feels more like a van than a car. See the Richard Hammond review where the poor little midget wonders what all the extra head room is for? 🤣😂🤣

My mum bought the 2008 version of this car and I'm not a fan at all. Very clunky. You can hear all the clickings of the lights coming on, even the lights at the back of the car.

Strange clutch, strange rattling noises in the gearbox (known issue), bad reverse gears since they used wrong gears for that. Best thing in that car is the engine since its a suzuki. If you want something that has space and is cheap on gas but makes zero fun, then get this car.

@bbyng7316 Жыл бұрын

There are certain known things that go wrong on the Vauxhall Agila Design 1.2, e.g. it needs a new gear box at c. 50,000 miles. Fix them all and you have a great, cheap and roomy car ideally suited for a 6'4" bloke. The seat can be angled flat like a van seat. That means it's much better for your back. I am more comfy in this car than any other. Sure the I side is a bit plasticity but who TF cares?!?
