2003 Hyundai Getz GL 5 Door review from Australia and New Zealand
"Brilliant! And thousands less than the competition!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Absolutely nothing!
General comments?
After 43 years driving, and many new car purchases, this is the first one that didn't have a list of fixes as long as your arm on the first service!
The car feels solidly built and with no interior rattles and very low road noise, is the quietest four cylinder I've owned.
The suspension spring rates are quite soft which gives the ride comfort you would expect in a much larger car. The trade off of course is handling when pushed through corners which is best described as adequate.
This car is the second one in our family. My sister in law has a 1.3 three door manual which has been as trouble free and as impressive as mine.
