Living with it
Reliability
Never had any problems with any aspect of the vehicle.
Image
Since buying the vehicle, I have added Fox alloys which have improved the look! If you want to fit a stereo, make sure you have a day spare (it was very tricky). Mine is in silver and gets looks wherever it goes.
Comfort
Seats are comfy. Back seats can get uncomfy if on a long journey.

Security and Service
Security
Mine has a very loud sensor alarm and immobiliser which were both on the car when i bought it. I have since bought a secure lock for the steering wheel. No-one has ever tried to get in!
Service
Speeds, Nottingam. I wanted a stamp with my cambelt service, so I got a quote from Hyundi over the phone. £317 was the quote. Took car in and had the full service. At the end of the day the cost all of a sudden came to £463!! Crap... I was not happy.
