2000 Hyundai Accent GS review from Australia and New Zealand
"Great car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Complete clutch assembly replaced at 1500km service (apparently a fault with many!)
Plastic trim in the boot replaced due to being broken when delivered.
Noisy CV joints at 7000km (notified the dealer - will replace at 15000 km service)
Poor wheel alignmemt from delivery. Eventually the dealer paid for external tyre service to get it right.
General comments?
Although a few teething problems, this is a great car.
Very fuel efficient.
Excellent performance and handling.
Improved exterior/interior finish.
Well optioned.
Comfortable.
Nice factory body kit and white dash.
