As I said that was my experience with them I also know other people who do do very well with the SX3.
As they say opinions are like "A" holes every one has one and most of them stink.
It is also worth seeing what is popular with the guys at your local club as they will help with set up and spares if your lacking one evening.

well as I was one of the first to have one of the SX3 cars when they came out (thanks to Phill and Mark marchal) I had also the first problems with it .
and yes the first mid belt was a problem bud that was solvd against the time the euro's arived so cant complain on that at all . second bearings ??????? i ran the car sinds April and it has seen it all dirt , dirt astro in al conditions tu up that most drivers would not even start and the car came in after a run and you could poor the dirt and water out of the car and never broken 1 bearing . schock towers mmmmm broken more of them last year on my 511 so ??? as tom and lee already told me a few times than dont hit anny thing than it wil not break lol . and as far as I now most belgium 4X4 drivers now drive a cat instead of there durango's from last year as the car is way easyer to drive and more durabel . but hey thats my opinion only . would say let me prep a car for you and you will see thats its not the car but the mecanic that mostly fails and that resulting in a broken part. lol
