    Just upgraded to a mk8.5 ST 3door model in race red with all options, after having my white mk7.5 ST215 for 7 years. I miss the mk7.5 a lot after driving for so long, but love everything about the 8.5 it’s been fantastic so far. The seats and the exhaust sound are definitely my favourite changes, along with the modern interior. I’ll give it another few months then go for the mountune m235 after the first service.

    You have to hope they develop slightly more powerful versions of thevengine, the interior is a bit of an upgrade and they have thrown a bit of equipment and tech at it to also comply eith new regs.

      @PocketRockets Місяць тому

      Hey Anthony, thanks for stopping by to watch and share your thoughts on the video & the Swift I can't see Suzuki producing any other variants of engine choice - as mentioned in other comment thread, I'm surprised to see Suzuki are still making the Swift with the way the car industry is crazily killing of the small car (thought we was all meant to be more environmental aware) But I'm hoping we see a Swift Sport arrive as the platform is great, especially the value for money too As I said in the video, the car is more of freshen up from the previous generation rather than a full redesign (again, the killing off of small cars) so it's the case of would you rather Suzuki kill the Swift off or continue to produce a small sporty car attainable for a larger mass of people? Again, thanks for watching and getting involved in the comments section 😀 👍🏼 All the best

    Great vid man but here are my thoughts. I have the previous model SZ5 Mild Hybrid with 1.0L 3 cyl Boosterjet Engine which has 109bhp. Got to say very underwhelmed by the new model, it just looks lie a facelift of my car. Slightly different at the front, and the tail lamps slightly different as well. Interior is almost identical apart from the larger infotainment screen. Overall the car is not that much different. The main disappointment is the engine only delivering a measly 81bhp, don't get me wrong I love my Swift, but to release a new model almost identical, with a lesser powered engine that is so much slower is a backwards step by Suzuki. BTW having now had a test drive in the new model a few weeks back I can confirm it is like a snail on valium compared to The 1.0 SZ5 Boosterjet Engine, I was actually shocked at how much slower it was. Again I absolutely love my current Swift as it has everything, but current owners will be massively put off by a ridiculous loss in performance of a so called new model,and many like myself will not purchase this 'clone' of the previous model with a woefully underpowered engine.

    • @PocketRockets
      @PocketRockets 2 місяці тому

      Hey Killian, thanks for stopping by the channel and watching! I understand your points, and I agree. I didn't feel like I was truly experiencing a new Swift, mainly because the car itself hasn't changed much apart from the looks and engine platform. The rest of the car really follows its predecessor's design. I haven't driven a 1.0 Boosterjet in a while (probably about 3-4 years ago), so I can't recall the engine characteristics for a direct comparison. On paper, it does seem like a step backwards. However, to Suzuki's credit, they continue to support (in my opinion) a very important automotive segment (small cars) while many manufacturers are going "green" by producing oversized, overpriced, and short-ranged vehicles. For existing owners of the previous Swift, I'd suggest holding onto their current car unless they need an upgrade and want to stay within the Swift platform. Again, appreciate your time commenting! All the best

      Well I now have a M140i, so I'd probably edge more towards a M240i, a lot of car for the money along with a great platform for tuning and modifying with aftermarket parts Hope that helps, thanks for watching!

    Sorry, I drive one and I would not call it an S model. No emotions and the diesel sound remind me of any other diesel car, and I just don’t like the diesel sound. S5 diesel is only for Europe, outside the Europe you can buy with petrol engine 👍

    • @PocketRockets
      @PocketRockets 3 місяці тому

      Fair enough, that's your view! A diesel no matter characteristics, it won't be as smooth as an equivalent petrol engine plus Audi did do a petrol version of the S5 in Europe (especially in the UK) Thanks for watching

    Have you already replaced your 335d? I'm in the same boat

    • @PocketRockets
      @PocketRockets 4 місяці тому

      I did indeed, mainly due to market being strong during "WokeDown" plus my PCP was up and was forced with mileage charges so managed to escape with positive equity too but then went mad and bought a M140i instead over a year ago now 🤣👍🏼 In hindsight, I prefer the 335d just a better all rounder apart from the missing sound/charcater I get from the 140 I'd personally still have a 335d over the Audi, more so the G80 340d (if budget allows) for you Thanks for watching

    Will this code auto fold mirrors when locking the car on 2016 f31 35d? The car does have the button to manually fold them.

    Driven both a puma and a kuga and I can say that, at least for me, the agility of the puma sets it apart from the kuga and the added boot space and bigger cockpit space set it apart from the fiesta. Also didn't mind the steering rack, a heavier feeling would've been nice but never had an issue with feel or precision

      No idea, can't recall them having an Eco driving mode, it's more a menu to monitor how you drive Just toggle through your menu using the steering wheel controls to change the menu you want to view
