Had two services Seven thousand,oil and filter change at Broome.Esperence had 15000 service.Nothing has fallen off,no repairs were needed,had a wheel alignment as many k,s of dirt were encounted. The drivers of the above vehicles all drove the Hyundai,to see why I raved about it,and were all surprised as to how well it drove.The fuel consumption was 12 14lts per 100km,s,depending on the headwind.this was by the best of all the vehicles in the convoy.The petrol vehicles recorded up to 23 25 lires per 100km.The Pajero's were aroud 15 19 l/100km,s.Now I will have a test drive of the soon to be released Santer Fe with 6 speed auto and extra 80 odd nm of torque.I only used fourth gear for the trip,being new engine etc.Yes I am very pleased with my Hyundai and understand why the sales figures are as good as the are.

Yes mud sticks but it also washes off. In the 60s & 70s most cars had rust on them after two three years its now 2009. Quality grows with experience, research and finance.

Why not just buy the original? The golfs out of germany are awesome quality, they can match or better the top japanese quality. (The golfs from south africa where a mistake) 2007? buy a 'new' car with 2 years depreciation built into it. Back on topic, well done Hyundai, there is a smart company!
