Why this little jellybean is my 'Car of The Year' 2023 - Daihatsu Sirion Rally 2 - Beards n Cars

[@jackp-j1041]

I've got a cuore, and I'm putting a 1.3 sirion engine in it right now

[@KLZ180]

Mate this is awesome. I have a diahatsu sirion gtvi which possibly is the same as your one and I love it and it's good to see someone else appreciating them. Love mine.

[@KLZ180]

Oh yea. Mine is the preface loft model aswell so that's another difference

[@beardsncars]

Nice one, it does look to be close enough to the same spec yeah

[@shaneessex6120]

Beast of a car i agree! So surprising its truly amazing, yes i have a gtvi , i say its the best car ive had yet, and ive had a few!

[@mjw_S61]

What a fantastic car! Not entirely sure the 4WD version correlates to off-road driving but instead more traction in inclement weather and the 'twisties'.

[@andyh5666]

Love it. I had the previous gen - manual, in kermit green back in the day😂 I loved that little thing with the wheels right on the corners... It was my first taste of something light and a little sporty. It could pull..with just me in it.

I've owned a 1998 Sirion 1.0 for just over a year now and I love it. I don't expect anything from it and just wanted to save it. Would love to drive this, or any Sirion with a 1.3 engine and later refinements, as it really is a basic car as you say!

[@TrinomCZ]

You would be surprised, but GTVi with automatic transmission has shift buttons on a steering wheel. I have it with 4x4 and it's really awesome. BTW, I have never seen the electrically foldable mirrors on these cars.

[@shaneessex6120]

Also this car has factory tuned chassis with front strut tower braces and under carriage

[@tim-linssen]

I have i sirion 2 it only has 92 hp 120 nm but its quite quick just fun to drive

[@markusjuenemann]

My first thought was, this would be the one Hubnut had owned...

[@shaneessex6120]

Electric windows need silicone spray on the tracks to maintain 😉

[@dmiitry2591]

Имею такую же Стория передний привод Классная машинка 🎉

[@shaneessex6120]

Japanese reliability ? Your power windows won't break dont worry!

[@worldhello1234]

You could engine swap it to the X4 engine. 🤗

[@beardsncars]
