1995 Hyundai Accent review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I did replace the brake pads, but that after 70,000 miles. Other than that, nothing!
General comments?
I bought used 1995 Accent in a hurry in 1999, with 32,000. I have to say I'm impressed with the fact that I have driven in snow, ice and rain all the way up to 111,000 without a single mechanical problem.
It handles well. Acceleration is not too great, although I did get a speeding ticket for doing 86 mph.
The radio still works, so does the heat and electrical system, etc.
I've gotten 5 years and 70,000 problem-free miles out of a car I paid $3,000 for, which works out to $600 per year. At that rate a car costing $30,000 would have to last a half century without a problem.
Bottom line: Even from a 1995 vehicle, Hyundai has proven to be an exceptional value.
