An excellent car but shame about its image!

I brought this car through the sc***page scheme to replace my ten yrs old Hyundai Coupe 2.0SE auto. At first I was n't sure as it doesn't have the image of say like a Mito or Fiat 500. But after studying the car in details, it has every thing I want from a car-full leather, reverse parking sensors, auto lights and wipers, auto dim mirrors, electric folding mirrors, 17 inch alloys, climate control, ipod connector and esp. It drives well compares to my brother's New Ford Focus as the engine is alot smoother and handling is better. The downside-the chrome door handle, leather steering and plastic handbrake gaiter feels a bit cheap. Most of all the image is poor-even though the car looks like the BMW 1 series, Hyundai should have design the front head lights better and added tinted rear lens. Otherwise, the side profile is actually quite modern. But for the money and 5 yr warranty, you cant argue with this car.

Some people are put off by the name but you will be surprised how good this car actually is!
