2000 Hyundai Trajet GSi 2.0 16v petrol from UK and Ireland
Summary:
Great
Faults:
The 3rd gear's synchro has gone. Need to shift very gently or push the clutch twice.
Passenger's door doesn't lock with central locking.
Spark plug cables needed replacement (2 & 4 were burnt?).
Reverse lights stopped working despite bulbs replacement.
Front tyres worn out quickly.
Battery keeps going flat after 5 days of no use.
General Comments:
Wanted an MPV and this was a real bargain. The 7 seats are a bit disadvantage as luggage space is small, but still enough for buggy etc.
The car "glides" well. A bit higher fuel consumption, but after all, it's a van with only a 2.0L engine.
Very spacious and comfortable, especially on long runs.
Need higher revs when overtaking or going uphill.
Top speed of 100 MPH is adequate for this kind of car, however acceleration isn't good, and it needs to be downshifted...
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
