हुंडई सैंट्रो [2000-2003] यूज़र रिव्यूज़

Great car to drive, handles well even at 120kmph. One of the best things about this car is that it can accommodate any driver - tall or short. For example, I, being relatively short have to pull the seat fully forward and my knees go comfortably under the dashboard - not so with some other cars where the knees touch the dashboard if the seat is fully forward. In all a great thing for short drivers.

Next is the gear shift - this is the best of all cars I have driven. It has a nice positive feel to it and you can almost feel the stick click into place while changing gears.

Another plus is its reliability - I have never had major problems with it. Yes a fuse or relay here and there did become loose/faulty but I guess that's because the car is already 6+ years old. Another age related problem was the right driveshaft whose boot had worn causing the CV joints to start to fail - replacement was cheap and quick. Overall very reliable at least as far as the mechanical aspects are concerned - even truer if the car is new.

On the whole a good car to own, gives good mileage - mine gives 12-13 on city roads with AC on for about 20 mins daily, very little maintenance required - as long as the regular oil change and other consumables (brake pads, wiper water, coolant, etc) are taken care of. However the authorised service centres are not very helpful - more often than not they create more problems than they solve.
