Ssangyong Tivoli for sale

Is the SsangYong Tivoli a good car? The SsangYong Tivoli is a decent pick if you want comfortable, family-orientated driving on a small budget.

Common problems with SsangYong cars often involve electrical gremlins (immobilizer, sensors, wiring), diesel engine issues (fuel system, DPF, turbo lag), suspension/chassis wear (ball joints, handbrake cables), and paint/corrosion issues, with specific models like the Rexton facing ball joint failures, while newer ones like the Tivoli see cheap interior trim wear and some engine/fuel recalls, alongside general concerns about parts availability and dealer support for older models.

The KGM Tivoli is far from fun on a twisting road. It jiggles about over poor road surfaces and can feel quite bouncy if you hit bumps in a certain rhythm. There’s also a lot of body lean and not much grip, so if you go into a corner too fast you can feel the front tyres struggling and you tend to wash wide.

All Tivoli engines are chain-driven so there are no cambelts to replace, which helps to trim running costs a little. Furthermore, to help you budget more easily, all SsangYong dealers offer an array of service plans.

What is Ssangyong TIVOLI Lifespan? The estimated lifespan of a Ssangyong TIVOLI is 137,000 miles, before reaching the life expectancy upper limit. Factors such as ULEZ compliance and BHP are major factors when looking into a vehicle’s lifespan.

Getting SsangYong parts can be hit-or-miss; common items from UK/EU online retailers or used parts sites are relatively easy and quick, but specialized or less common parts might require ordering from Korea, leading to a 1-2 day wait if in stock or 6-8 weeks if needing production/shipping, though some owners report surprisingly fast deliveries, even within a week. The dealer network’s strength varies by location, and some independent garages are hesitant to work on them, making online options crucial for owners.

2015 was an exciting year for SsangYong with the launch of Tivoli, a small crossover vehicle. Engineered in conjunction with Mahindra and powered by an all-new SsangYong 1.6L engine.
