The insurance is expensive, but I'm only 20, so this is expected, and road tax is a respectable £90 per year (2009+models are only £30!)
Faults wise the starter motor went after 25k on it, however the well backed up 5 years warranty helped sort this issue. I have owned this car since March 2010, and since then have racked up over 24k miles. Every last one has been a joy. And the car has lasted well. A very smooth driving car, and a comfortable ride for all.Handles very well(i Installed sports springs, still rides very well, and handles even better, with less body roll and understeer).
Compliments are even given from my friends, who are impressed with the quality and finish of the car.
I would definitely buy another Hyundai as I love the reliability and standard equipment on them.
