I got my '05 Accent GL with 1,200 miles on it almost exacty a year ago...just over 12,000 miles on it now. I had my cluster replaced under warranty around 8,000 miles when I accidentally broke the tachometer needle motor thing trying to make a custom cluster...woops...:

Gartner Buick/Hyundai/Saab. My family has bought our past 4 cars there...we love them. But yeah, the tachometer needle was just resting against the peg and would flicker and jump around once in a while. I just told them it stopped working...lol. :devious:

That's where I bought my car. I had my car there for warranty work and they messed it up, they were supposed to change the left rear strut and they changed the right rear strut. I never brought it back, too busy. That was 4 years ago...heh.
My '96 Accent GT had 286,271km/s when i bought it used last week. Its now 287,465 now that Ive been driving it. With all the km/s she still drives nice and handles nice .
1995 Sonata, v-6 Auto, 7 years and 168k and still counting
2000 Sonata, 2.5L V6 Auto, 5 years and 144k and still counting (recently traded)
2006 Elantra, 2.0 5spd, 1st year 28k
2006 Sonata, 3.3L V6, 1st year 24k
The cost per mile of operation on my first two Son's was INCREDIBLE. So far, things seem to be shaping up the same.
Number one; Brakes, Tires and a power antenna...THAT WAS IT!
Number Two: Brakes, Tires, Timing belt at 70k...Nothing else
Number Three: Not one thing other than mods. No issues whatsoever.
Number four: Same thing, bone stock, no issues at all.
either I have been very, very luck or Hyundai really does build some quality, dependable autos. They get my referral anytime anyone asks.
86 stellar 402,000km well over 300,000km on the 2.4 that was in it. middle of a 4g63t swap, hope to have running by the summer
87 stellar 360,000km on it, drove very well, was a winter car but the rust gremlins got to it
95 elantra 1.6, 192,000km driving daily 1000km a week, doing very well
my 91 mazda protege gt 443,000km on it, still drives great, middle of a paint job right now. key to a car lasting is regular maintanance. all my cars have done very well. i average about 100,000kms a year
