1999 Hyundai Excel GLX review from Australia and New Zealand
"Very good for a first car or a person who needs a new car for little money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The dashboard had been cracked by the sun, replaced under warranty.
Back door panel vinyl had peeled from the carpet insert, replaced under warranty.
General comments?
I love it, it's very good for my needs. 4 doors and a big boot, was easy to install a good Sony sound system.
The 5 speed gives the twin cam good power, not speed power, but all you need for good fuel costs.
