Suzuki Vitara - anyone got one?

ThisIsWeird

I'll be looking to replace our car sometime over the rest of the year. It'll have to be an SUV-style for the higher seating position.

Current car is a 2015 C4 Picasso, which is probably the most competent all-rounder in its class - roomy, very bright, comfy, economical, nice interior - it ticks pretty much all the boxes, but isn't very 'interesting'.

The Vitara looks good to my eyes - I especially like the chunky front. It's also good value, but therein may lie its drawback? Reviews say it's also cheaply built. Light tinny doors? Not the best sound-proofing? A bit basic?

Any of that true?! Considering a 2019 model onwards.

Thoughts? Ta.

I had a Suzuki Vitara in 2016 from new. It was a nice car to drive and very comfortable. Not much has changed in that time, apart from the different engines now.

I found the interior to be rather boring and quite basic, hard plastic dashboard, nothing to brag about. Doors sounded rather tinny when you shut them. 

It did have a decent sized boot with decent leg room in the back though. The was no centre arm rest when i had mine and felt it needed it but i do believe they have them now.

I wouldn't personally have another.
