I see the new swift is out, no doubt swift sport to follow, and no doubt comments about not enough power boot too small etc.
I have a 66 plate and the Mrs 70 plate and both are brilliant little cars so I expect the new one will be much of the same.

Rumours of a new Swift sport arriving either late this year or more likely next year with circa '160 bhp', I know Suzuki are always a bit conservative with their figures,that would certainly be interesting. You and your wife are very lucky to own two already. I see the new swift is out, no doubt swift sport to follow, and no doubt comments about not enough power boot too small etc.

Nice evolution...Sport should look cracking I see the new swift is out, no doubt swift sport to follow, and no doubt comments about not enough power boot too small etc.

Circumstances may lead me down the road of a ZC32 sport this bank holiday weekend.
2017 5 door model with close to 80k on it. Not my ideal colour choice etc but its a case of beggars cant be choosers currently.
I've had a good read through this thread and plenty to think of when going to look at it. Everything I've read seems positive, so I'm pretty excited to give it a test drive on Monday.
Will report back!

I’m off on the train on Saturday to look at/buy a 5dr with 50k on it.

Hope we're both successful! I’m off on the train on Saturday to look at/buy a 5dr with 50k on it.
Does anyone know the official specs of the wheels that are on the 17 year models (ZC32) at all please?
Theres a few different offsets floating around?
Best I can see is 17x6.5 ET50 5x114.3? This right?
Cheers!

I always recommend 205/45 tyres. I’ve back to backed 195/45 and 215/45.
They also really suit Goodyear f1 assy tyres.
For the guys looking to buy don’t be put off if the gear change feels poor from cold. They are all like that and improve a lot once warm. A fluid change and maybe the linkage bushes too improve things a lot and don’t cost much.
The box only holds 1.8l so it’s worth doing quite regularly.
For the two who are hopefully buying one this weekend, here’s an abridged checklist I found for the Swift Sport. Most of it’s generic anyway but thought you might find some of it useful:
Engine cold when seeing car or has it been warmed up?
Fluid levels and changes. Check service history
Oil and filter every 9k
Brake fluid every 18k
Transmission fluid inspected every 18k?
Coolant 90k
Air filter 27k 54k 72k
Sparkplugs - 48 months/condition/type
Frothy dipstick?
Oil leaks? VVT gasket/solenoid/oil filter assembly
Cooling - radiator/pump/expansion tank/lines/ coolant level all ok?
Blue-=piston rings/valves
Black=running rich. Check air filter
Transmission - Sloppy/tight?
Clutch slip?
Idle speed - 1500 cold 800 hot. Turn everything on see if it stalls
Body - rust? Panel gaps? Alloys kerbed?
Suspension - bouncing/ Creaking? Knocking? Figure of 8
Brakes - spongy? Condition of discs? Brake lines? Brake fluid changed at 18k 36k 54k 72k?
Interior - everything working? AC?
Test drive
Figure of 8?
Clutch slip?
Pulling to one side?
Vibration under braking?
