Hyundai Accent 94-99
Comparatively poor 1.5-Star NCAP crash test results. Base 1.3s don't have PAS. Dumpy looks. Styling of front valance is dubious. Replaced by new Accent for 2000 model year.
What to Watch Out For
Some did go onto leasing, rental and particularly Motability fleets. With older cars watch out for same inadequate or incompetent kerbside home servicing as Pony. Front tyres tend to wear badly. Must have cambelt changes every 3 years or 36,000 miles. Rust prone, so check for this carefully.
SanteFE
Strangely organic styling. You either like the look or you don't.
What to Watch Out For
Unions of pipe from high pressure pump to injection common rail are highly prone to fracture.
