1997 Hyundai Accent review from UK and Ireland
"Great value, good dealers, fair performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Petrol gauge failed after a few months, repaired under warranty.
Windscreeen washer pump failed August 2000, still under warranty.
General comments?
Has a reasonably powerful engine for a 1300.
Tyre wear on front seems heavy but nothing seriously wrong with the car.
Have just ordered a new GLSi from the same dealer, who says that I'll notice a great improvement with the gear change.
