2008 Hyundai Getz CRDI review from Philippines
"Economical and fast"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Hankook tires seem to be made of paper, came with the car from the dealership. Had to replace 2 tires in 5k kms.
Broke my oil pan after running through big pointy rocks.
Light duty suspension is very weak.
General comments?
This car flies. For a diesel hatch, the turbo really does make a big difference, but at the same time, it's very economical to use. Pure city driving runs 13-14kms/liter, and provincial driving runs 18-22kms/liter.
Brought this car to Baguio (winding roads going up), and it showed no hesitation and was able to climb the mountain with no problems.
