1986 Hyundai Stellar Executive review from North America
"Slow, but VERY reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to have the EGR valve drilled out from carbon build up.
Needed to have axle seals done for e-testing.
General comments?
The car has been absolutely great!
I've spent $1200 CD altogether on the car, and it is still going very strong.
No rust, just paint bubbling over rear wheel-wells.
Car lacks power, but is great for booting around town.
Seats are slightly uncomfortable for long drives, but that could just be my back.
