Hyundai Matrix - Fiona Little
I'm thinking of buying one as the seat is good for my little legs and garage. Are they any good? And shouldI get the 1.6 or 1.8 or something entirely different?
Any advice on Hyundais generally gratfully received

Hyundai Matrix?? or Daewoo Matiz?

Hyundai make boring but reliable cars. They depreciate rapidly - particularly the bigger models.

Fiona,

Hyundai also do a diesel model for the Matrix, which you'd find much more frugal, if a little breathless. Indeed Hyundais do depreciate quite rapidly, but a diesel would hold its value better. Something like the 1.6 or 1.8 would depreciate more quickly, so you may be able to save a packet on an ex-demo/ nearly new from your nearest franchise.

Generally Hyundais are very reliable, although have been known for transmission gremlins, especially in the Accent.

Spares seem to be very expensive. Have a look at the post by David Moore 18 03 02.

I would not necessarily recommend something of such low capacity - you tend to switch off air-con when storming hills! - but perhaps I should report that daughter and son-in-law have had over three years fault-free service from a Matiz.
