QUICK DRIVE: Suzuki Swift Sport

We have always been HUGE fans of the Suzuki Swift Sport here at OVERSTEER – it is not only a small car with loads of character, Suzuki have actually made meaningful changes to the ordinary Swift to transform it into the Sport, as opposed to slapping some badges and a spoiler on it. It not […]
