Brad: I can remember all the way back to Motoring 88. Long before the internet, Motoring XX was the best way on television for us kids to foster our love of cars.
@@Lambdasonddd yes pretty much everything. Engine is based on Opel / gm family 2, so parts fit from opel cars and suspension is made by lotus so parts are available too. Also in my country we have last surviving importer of original Daewoo parts from Korea. They are bit more expensive but still available.
I had a 99 Leganza way back in 2009 for my first car. It had 100,000km and was immaculate but had a lot of issues! AC was broken, heater core rusted out, had the head reconditioned before i bought it and then the main bearings started failing. It would idle for 30 seconds and then start chugging until u revved it. Sometimes it wouldn't start at all for ages in the morning. It was pretty amazing how crap it was for such a well maintained low km car. I guess thats why they are mostly gone! My dad had a manual Lanos tho and that was a great car !
in 30 years, old millenials will see these rounded Daewoos and whine about how these were so clean and pretty and that *They don't make them like they used to* 😛
I'd sooner have this than the 2020 Mirage! At least you get some vaguely Italian styling. I probably first watched this episode as a highschool kid. Saturday mornings on TSN, this is the show I looked for.
Where is Lanos episode?? There is Lanos next to Leganza in this video.(Probably offered by daewoo for test drive) I want to see more daewoo 's episode.
This was a quite popular car in Poland, where im from, and where Leganza was produced. Cheapest car in its class. Ugly interior. Technically connected with Opel/GM. Engines were quite reliable (Opel Ecotec, iirc) many of them had LPG. Have not seen a single one on the road from ~5 years.
The Daewoo Leganza was pretty luxurious, but not as luxurious as luxury cars of its generation, despite its affordability. Now that’s what you call an “Affordable Luxury Experience”. 👍 Although the Leganza wasn’t a very safe car. It doesn’t have a very strong safety cage and has weak structural integrity.
@@Lianpe98 I know Julian makes no difference. It wasnt worth even 15k, for that piece of crap. A civic was and still is cheaper 22 years later. And far a better car. Those Daewoos were garbage. Money pit of issues.
@@moeanthony9308 did you owned one, when you can say it was a garbage and pit of issues?? first 3 years were covered by Warranty (that many companies later copied from daewoo) that covered parts and labor. FOR FREE. they also gave you another car (exactly the same car as your own) to drive while your was in service... Next time just stay silent and don't say anything about something you never owned.
@@lordmmx1303 Hahahaha.Dude that was eloquently said. A poet and doesn't know it. Bahahahaha. Look folks we have a comedian. Why would any one feel that good about a company that gives me a car under warranty endless? Besides that, my Porsche dealer always looked after me in service or not. Second of course I knew a few people who owned this death trap of a car. More the reason to proudly say I didn't own one. They actually never drove it because it was in for service so often. Are you trying to be funny? A smart a*s? or lack there of kindergarten. Please tell us. But wait you probably owned a Daewoo, no need necessary to respond. And you have the odeasity to call yourself a Tuner? It's no wonder Daewoo fan boy
@@moeanthony9308 first of all, i'm not a car tuner. Anyway, your Porsche (Volkswagen) dealer learned it's customer service from daewoo. Literally copied it. Also porsche worked on leganza with daewoo (engine and brakes are tuned by Porsche). And yes one of cars i own is actually a Leganza (next to bmw x5, vw golf mk6 and opel crossland x). And the thing is , leganza is the most reliable of them all.

well... company would be fine, but founder and CEO did some trickery with financial books and when asian financial crisis hit in 1999, he believed they will survive and kept on taking over other companies. I think Ssangyong was a taken over company that broke Daewoo's neck. Kia and Hyundai are one company, but they did opposite of what Daewoo did. they shrunk down divisions to survive.
The Leganza was a cheaply made car..the exterior felt like it was made from recicled coke cans and the interior..well it was o.k as long as it wasn't used in a hot country-the pollymer used for the dashboard did not last long under the sun,the roof lining started 'it's way down on your head' and the mechanic part also 'contributed' it's part in thinning your wallet... what a CRAP
Tengo un leganza del año 1999 acá en Chile vivo en la región de la Araucania Dónde Tenemos Lluvia, nieve y El verano llega a más de 30 grados Celcius y no tiene ningún plástico roto o suelto
My Mother had a Daewoo Leganza and was beautiful car but had somes problems. With the hot of Spain the interior It didn't sit well with the passage of time.
Gosh I have such a soft spot for the Leganza ❤️❤️
Is a beautiful car.
Loved mine best 800 beater I ever owned
I have one since 2017. Its very comfortable, indestructible, has an amazing design and drive well. I love this Car :)
Still got my Daewoo Leganza

Made my day thanks!
They had an ultrasonic sensor for security! That's pretty unique
not really. A lot of cars had those in the late 90s...
I own one. Just amazing car. Maybe i got lucky but it's soo reliable. I drive it only in summer though. as previous owner did.
do you still have one?
@@Lambdasonddd yes still. But I don't drive it in winter.
@@lordmmx1303 Is it still possible to get parts? Wow
@@Lambdasonddd yes pretty much everything. Engine is based on Opel / gm family 2, so parts fit from opel cars and suspension is made by lotus so parts are available too. Also in my country we have last surviving importer of original Daewoo parts from Korea. They are bit more expensive but still available.
"Boy, all I can say is it must've been a slow day on the old slogan departmemt" 😆
It has a very distinctive face, instantly recognisable as a Daewoo. Can't say the same about most other cars even today.

Joel you're making me feel old but thanks!
"vaguely italian styling" 😂👏
I remember the Laganzer.
Laganza
What a beautiful car. Sadly they stop making it in 2002…
2008 in egypt
Where is Lanos episode??
There is Lanos next to Leganza in this video.(Probably offered by daewoo for test drive)
I want to see more daewoo 's episode.

No produced, just assembled.
@@daewooful what's the difference?
@@Lianpe98 CKD. the parts were manufactured in korea, and then imported to poland.
@@TundraMC The production of the parts is not the production of the car itself
Bought one brand new as a cheap run-about because of Canberra, Australia, winter weather. Loved it and it lasted me well.

Best looking Daewoo car.
That's not sayin much
Daewoo rare know nice Italian design
Nice video thank

Strange they could not make it, yet Hyundai and Kia did.

They never sell them a lot like lada
