1998 Hyundai Galloper review from United Arab Emirates
"I had much Better offraod vehicle and it was cheaper"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Turbo blew up at 2000 miles.
Fuel leakage,
front left wiper did not work fixed under warranty.
Strange loud noises from engine, dealer haven't solved this problem yet.
General comments?
It's a good comfortable vehicle and handles well on tough and slippery roads, but too much problems, now I am feeling sorry I have sold the Tata Safari I had before as it was cheaper and it gave me minor problems and almost the same performance.
I am not saying avoid at all cost, because maybe mine came faulty, but I wouldn't buy another vehicle from hyundai, probably it will be another Tata Safari since I like 4X4.
