1998 Hyundai Excel Twin Cam review from Australia and New Zealand
"OK if it's all you can afford"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Bearings on front shocks died.
Alternator burnt out.
Electric fan seized.
Continual 'check engine' light coming on & revs all over the place.
General comments?
Reasonably powered.
Reasonable fuel economy.
Poor finish.
