1998 Hyundai Accent GT review from UK and Ireland
"If you wanna stay alive avoid this plastic car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fuel pump malfunctioned.
It consumes too much fuel.
I think plastic is tougher than the body of the accent.
Had to change front suspension after going over 1 speed bump at 30mph.
General comments?
This car is nothing and worthless, if you wan a sport car don't buy a Korean car. Imagine if you have an accident with this car, with the body made by very cheap metal I don't own this vechile anymore and looking for another and much much better sport car possibly a Toyota Glanza or VW Golf.
Its Speed is great and its comfortable enough, but handling is poor and in rain you have be all eyes on the road.
Engine is made in Korea so don't expect much, it consumes too much fuel I mean I had to buy another car for everyday use and use the accent only in weekends.
