1987 Hyundai Excel GLS review from Australia and New Zealand
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Clutch needed replacing.
Some areas of the car needed a re-paint due to the poor original paint job.
General comments?
Handles worse than a truck, don't try taking a corner at more than 20 in this baby.
Nice peppy motor.
If looks mean anything then this is the ugliest thing on the road.
It's an all round hunk of junk and I will celebrate the day that I sell it.
