The car they have is red in color with some strips. I could only say that the engine felt good as ours. The radiator is original Japan made and has not given any trouble ( we recently changed the radiator of our 800 and this is third ). The door handles had a better feel that our 800.
Yes, the parts of these cars (SS80) are of much higher quality than the current ones. Almost all the parts of these cars are made in Japan. The first batches of the SB 308IN, 86-87 also had a great number of japan parts and hence boast great quality levels. But sadly maruti has lost the plot with the currrent 800s!
