Let's see what long term reliability is like for a 1 litre 3 cylinder which is probably almost always on boost. They don't exactly sound great either with the lack of a 4th cylinder.

I'll stick with the naturally aspirated Swift.

Have you actually driven one ?

Don't agree mine sounds great - shame its not a tad louder but everyone thats been it it loves the noise - even Clarkson said

'You might imagine that it’s a mass of turbo lag and torque holes and strange noises. But no. It makes a sort of “brrrrr” noise and is like having a west highland terrier under the bonnet. I completely loved it.'

Can't talk about reliability but there are plenty of Ecoboost engines with high mileages now - also as my car will be swapped at 3 yrs it doesn't concern me.

How does this compare to the GT86 that was in the fleet before? Similar formula, just in a FWD guise.

Also would like to know this, the gt86 is so much more expensive currently and not massively faster
