For an inexpensive car, I've been amazed how utterly reliable it has been. Performance is OK (it's a 4-cylinder station wagon, not a Ferrari!) I would definitely buy another Hyundai (and plan to soon!)

The auto transmission in these cars are garbage. Once they warm up everything worked good. But in cold it was very slow shifting between gears. My car never had anything done to it, so its quite reliable. It would be a good car if its a manual.

It's an economy car without any extras. It's not impressive in any way, but I've seen worse.

This vehicle was very good value for money compared to it's Japanese competitors. It was full house, without me stipulating any additional items. This was the newer shape, with the Hyundai beta engine, no longer the Mitsubishi engine. The power was there, but the engine was a bit thirsty for fuel. Service from the new motor company in South Africa was excellent, until the day the dealership crashed my car whilst in for a service. Thereafter they did not want to help me at all.

It's nothing to whistle at but it gets me form here to there reliably and quickly. It's a good all around car.
