Summary
What does this car say about you?
Nothing. I am unhappy for my choise.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Would you buy this car again and why?
I will never buy a Hyundai. Not only this model. None!
What are you likely to buy next?
I am not a fan of some brand. When I replace my car (I mean when I'll have the money), I will consider a price range, the specification and features that I want, and from those I will choose 2 or 3 cars. Then I will make the final choise by search the internet for real owners opinions and I will watch out the negative opinions, because whoever has a negative opinion, has nothing to gain. Someone with a positive opinion maybe has something to gain.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
I own a HYUNDAI Accent from 1998 and have only 92.000 klms. I also -and always- drive "gently". I don't drive fast, I don't accelarate strong, I don't go above 90 klms per hour because I want to have fuel economy. HYUNDAI cars generally may be cheap to buy, seems to have enough good technical specifications and they're good looking. But I believe its not worth because: a) it has poor construction quality, b) it appears often mechanical and electrical malfunctions, c) the fuel consumption usually is bigger than this described by its book, d) it has expensive genuine parts so an expensive service, e) it burns lots of oils inside its engine (so, I have to carry always Oil with me). f) when I drive I hear sounds and “cracks” from the main body and the plastics of the
