2002 Hyundai Elantra GLS review from Venezuela
"Nice surprise and a great buy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing, only minor faults, a fusible blew and the black tape used in the front doors is peeling off a little.
General comments?
In general this car surprised me, I didn't expect such a great performance for a car of this manufacturer and price, it has good power, nice driving feeling and plenty of space.
The model I brought didn't came with ABS and rear discs and I think the car needed.
Perhaps Hyundai needs to put more details in the interior to erase the sensation of too much plastic.
Only time will tell the last word, but until now I think is an excellent buy and better price/value relation.
Corollas and Civic's watch your back.
