1993 Hyundai Scoupe LS review from Netherlands
"Nice little sports car for a nice price."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I first got the car, it had a few problems and they we're all related to a faulty ECU. Replaced it, and the car runs like a dream.
At 160.000 kilometers my alternator died.
At 178.000 kilometers I've had the timing belt replaced, new brake disc's + pads, the rear brake drums repaired and some new spark plugs.
And a few oil changes, just regular maintenance.
General comments?
I like the car very much, handles nicely. Reasonable performance and good fuel economy.
Seats are comfortable, however the car is a bit bouncy on bumps in the road.
The only thing that bothers me, is the really irritating wind noise when driving at high speed.
