Faults:

Throttle Position Switch, continuous problems have had this replaced every year almost on the dot.

Oxygen Sensor, had to have this replaced last month following poor emissions on last MOT.

Catalytic Converter, this was due to Throttle Position Switch and oxygen sensor problems which fuelled the Catalytic Converter and has burnt it out.

Exhaust Manifold. This is a known fault, which Hyundai are aware, a crack appears at the branch and you have to replace the Manifold with the Catalytic Converter as they are build as one.

Clock, the clock flashes on and off.

General Comments:

The car has been generally reliable.

I am still on my first Clutch, Suspension and Exhaust excluding the Manifold and Catalytic Converter.

Faults:

Nothing at the moment.

General Comments:

This car is too hot for words. If it was a women it would be Jennifer Aniston.

Faults:

So far the only fault I have had with the car is after having a new tyre fitted on the front passenger side, the tracking and steering went completely out of sync.

General Comments:

This car is the ultimate in comfort, both to drive and to travel in.

Its pickup speed is very fast and has no problems out of the starting block.

I will have no problems picking my next car, I want another!

Faults:

I had to change the brake calipers after 10000 miles.

The engine has been opened after 13000 miles cause it was doing a sound like if it was a diesel engine.

I changed even the clutch after 20000 miles.

General Comments:

It was a mistake for Hyundai creating the coupe with a 1.6 liter engine. It cannot be compared with other 1.6 liter engines like Honda etc...

The body is too heavy for a sports car.

Beautiful dashboard if some things are changed.

Faults:

Nothing other than needing 2 new tyres which is wear and tear.

General Comments:

Stunning car that you can't stop looking at unless Sarah Michelle Geller walks past that is.

Handling is second to none and it handle corners without any body roll. Somebody said to me it's like it glides round corners.

Not much room in the back, but who cares... if you need 4 seat for adults then buy a crappy Vauxhall Vectra.

Faults:

No mechanical problems at all.

But PAINTWORK EXPENSIVE (AS ON ALL METALLIC PAINT), expensive to redo. Need to spend £400 on front bumper and one side bumper from a parking (not me) side scratch from a truck when parked (the car not the truck).

General Comments:

A good looking car, I prefer this model to the new 2000 coupe look.

SE came with leather upholstlery, CD and air con.

Good MPG.

Possible criticism, not built for tall people, although the aircon model has more height than sunroof models..

Faults:

It's only 5 months from new, I can't say. I hope that I won't have any.

General Comments:

My previous cars were Fords so this is my first Korean car. I find it value for money for what you get. In Malta, it is the cheapest new coupe that can be bought - it is cheaper than a Puma or a Tigra which are smaller, less roomy and have a smaller capacity engine. The car is also quite refined mechanically although not to the level of its Japanese counterparts. Also it gets noticed in traffic for its aerodynamic design (I like to compare its shape to an RX7). Although it's a coupe, it is quite roomy in the back seat.

Well, I like it!
