1997 Hyundai Accent Coupe Si review from UK and Ireland
"Cheap, quick and fairly stylish"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Windscreen washer pump blocked.
Rear suspension needed some adjustment.
Front tyre wear quite considerable and uneven.
General comments?
Quick and responsive for a 1.3, thanks to Hyundai's excellent 12 valve 1341cc engine.
Could do with a little more refinement, but has it where it matters.
Highly impressed with my local dealership, as is common with Hyundai.
Definitely looks better in the spoiler-endowed "Coupe Si" edition than the basic "Coupe i" for the vintage.
