    I was skint some years back and needed a car to do a 40 mile round trip every day to work. I bought one second hand and have to say, I never had any problems with it at all. The seats were super comfortable and it had decent performance and economy. It was a 1.3 GSI 3 door. Paid £1250 for it and I think I sold it about 3 years later for £700 so cheap and cheerful motoring. I have owned another 4 Hyundai's since and it all started with this little car which I bought because I was broke!

    I bought mine at 130k and it's currently at 212k. Still going strong.
    I recommend a manual, doing the regular maintenance, and driving it carefully. It's a rather easy-to-fix car compared to newer cars, so buy the manual and learn your way around. My friends have car loans, I just have the car...laughing all the way to the bank. I don't need the frills- point A to point B.

      I had a 2001 with the auto trans. I bought it with just 32K on it...shortly after, the trans started messing up, so it was fixed under warranty. At 120K, the trans packed it in for good. I was sad, because the rest of the car was still good, and it ran like a watch

Not sure if you're in the US, but there are younger versions of this model still being sold at low miles. I did run into another guy who ran his into the ground. He said it drove til 270k.

Not an expensive car, not a performance car, but i really love to drive it! 5.8l/100km consumption with 110km/h speed. Very efficient, very reliable!! Love it!!

    I don't know if much people know it; Hyundai has a mission and that is still building reliable cars. If you brought the Accent from another person and you got problems, the car may have been fucked up by that person.
    The Accent is like the Excel a very great car! I'm currently driving the Hyundai Excel 1.3i SE (2000), and I'm planning to replace my car with a dark blue Accent 1.3 from 2001 very soon! :-)

    Oooh! That review really set my world on fire 😉
    I remember sitting in one at the motor show, and finding it a pleasant place to be (although the gear lever knob was mysteriously missing (probably stolen 😠)).
    A shame, as they really are quite a decent company from my experience.
    The reviewer missed out on checking quite a few things (rear room, boot space, performance, maybe one or two others), which makes the whole review quite pointless.
    Nearly bought one second hand a few years back (mvi) - most prudent second hand purchase as it seemed to tick a lot of boxes.

    mines got nearly 290,000km and it's ok. For a cheap every day car it has no problems. If anyone is thinking of buying one they seem to be good cars. Although some complaints are the noise in the cabin while driving and it's pretty gutless, but in my manual it launches well if need be. It has no problems doing 110km/h on Australian highways, but the revs are pretty high.

    Although in the US we never received the 5 door hatch back version we only had the 4 door Sedan and 3 door hatchback I can't imagine anyone who was used to driving So many awful in unreliable euro trash Cars like the brits That this guy would have the nerve to turn his nose up at this one. This generation Hyundai accent was a pretty solid offering back in the day especially when compared to any of the other Korea and offerings from either daewoo or Kia. I think the Hyundai accent voice truly the 1st offering from Hyundai that put a bit of respectability into the brand here in the US. These were pretty tough little cars and lasted A long time Any American roadways before only recently becoming more and more scarce. The only other sub compact cars I think that may have been better was the Chevrolet/Geo metro which are still All over the place here in Miami Beach even though they were discontinued in 2001 and the Toyota echo. I was surprised though when he described the car as having a softly sprung suspension considering that the cars stiff and choppy ride was most people's biggest complaint About the car.

    great cars. i prefer them over civics. only thing i dont like is those crappy tires. god with such light pedals its super easy to give these cars too much gas if you arent careful and will spin the tires on a incline. and if the ground is wet and you give it enough gas to begin wheel spin (which doesnt take much). forget it. you have to stop completely and give another go. or else youll end up topping off both first and second gear without going anywhere. happens to me in my elantra.
