I purchased my Hyundai Accent about 2 years ago and have loved it ever since! I went into the car-buying experience determined to buy a car that had high safety ratings and was a great value. I was very pleased when I first saw my car and its safety ratings and decided to take it for a test drive. It drove very smoothly and, after going through the specifics with the salesman, I decided that it was the car for me.

This car has been used and abused to no end. Driven high and wide through sleet, snow, chicken poop, low on fluids in below zero and hundred degree stop-and-go Boston traffic. And still she gives me no gripes. I even put her in first at the light and leave 'em in the dust for fun. The poor thing hardly ever even gets an oil change and only a top up of half a quart now and then when I check the others. I have done the timing belt twice with one new water pump, two ball joints from pot holes, and new belts all around. The heat blows hot, ac cool, seats as hard and uncomfortable as ever. I don't know why she treats me so well. I love her for it. I should be nicer. Bought her new, eight years ago.
