1994 Hyundai Excel CXL review from North America
"A high economical and reliable bargain"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to replace my timing chain at 100,000 km. This was under warranty.
I had to replace my front boots at 100,000 km. This was under warranty.
I had to replace my brake pads at 140,000 km.
General comments?
I love my Hyundai Excel CXL.
It is very economical and exceptionally reliable. At 180 K km. I still get 48 miles per gallon! Beyond the scheduled maintainance items I have not had a speck of trouble with this vehicle.
The front seats are very comfortable. Every passenger that has been in this car will attest to this.
The heater is exceptional on those cold, wintery days.
