-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Firstly I know nothing about cars and so all technical info will come from my husband who has maintained and repaired every car he's ever had and so therefore knows what he is talking about. I on the other hand only care that they get me safely from A to B and back again in some degree of comfort. I know what a mini and a lambourghini look like and must admit i'm rather partial to the latter so long as it's yellow. We purchased this car as part exchange for a Golf GTI. It was manufactured in 2002 and had 23.500 miles on the clock. When my husband told me he was ...  Read the complete review

Very nice looking car. Still fits in nicely considering it's 11 years old. Very reliable, quite fast when you need the speed. The level of equipment inside, being Japanese is more than adequate. This includes cruise control, leather seats and air con, as standard, where with the average car, you'd be paying out extra for these essentials. Quite cheap to maintain, and very reasonable in terms of insurance - perfect for someone's first car. Having owned mine for over a year now, I would definetly consider buying another, as the new models are even better. Good boot space, good rear leg room - those essential golf clubs can fit in with ease. Quite a practical car even if ...  Read the complete review

Prior to this car I was driving a Ford Escort. After the fourth time in a row of it failing its MOT due to severe rust, I decided enough was enough and started shopping around for a reliable used car. I was immediately drawn to the Hyundai Coupe. Now, I'm not one to purchase a product based solely on aesthetic design, but when I first saw the coupe my heart skipped a beat. This is one gorgeous looking car! For me, reliability is a major factor when it comes to purchasing a car. At the end of the day a car is there to get you from A to B, not to act as a fashion accessory. Fortunately, I live close to a garage who specialise in servicing Hyundais so I paid them ...  Read the complete review

I am the proud, recent owner of a 2.0 ltr Auto Hyundai Coupe. I have to start by saying it is an amazing car for its price. I have the new look 06 plate which is what I will be basing this review on. Looks The main issue which first attracted me to this car was its looks and style. I was not a huge fan on the early shape i.1 before 2002, however the 2006 looks beautiful. The sleek shape of the car reminds me to some extent of a Mustang. Interior The interior of the car is small but amazing. The gadgets you get as standard are brilliant especially considering the price (I paid just over £6500). The 2.0ltr has leather as standard, AC, CD ...  Read the complete review
