I got one Hyundai
Really drinking petrol like mad
Almost everyday one quarter usage

I have other cars, so i know the difference and its irrelevant to say compare user usage

But now its in the workshop, coz the wheel bearing came off....
so most of the -ve points here are true

i drive a saga 1.3, and my girlfren has a getz 1.4. both stock. even though difference only 0.1 litre, the performance of getz is much much better.. it's fun to drive, good pickup, and the engine sounds lovely when u rev it hard. not too noisy like the saga, and it feels like u're driving a car with a powerful engine. really nice to drive if u like to drive fast and overtake often. only complain is that steering wheel is a bit too large but thin, i love the saga steering wheel better, smaller and soft, and has more grip.

Hyundai Getz is quite a good car.My untie and uncle own 1 each.My untie car already 5 years and it is still as good as new, no squeaking sound compare with my 2 year plus myvi......dashboard and whole car got squeaking sound.. damn annoying....
Ohya Getz is a heavy car compare with Myvi.I mean the overall feeling of driving it.
Hyundai car basically have a lower resale value compare with other make.
Getz is a solid car because my untie work in sales and have a high mileage and after 5 years nothing major problem with it.

i didnt really measure but i think the getz fc higher... or maybe it's because the getz has analogue fuel meter and saga lcd one... so i can see the fuel meter goes down slowly when im driving the car, compared with the saga with 6 fuel bars which only goes down one bar after driving for some time... anyway, if u drive ok, fc should be allright for any cars with 1.4 or 1.3 engine... inflate tyres a bit more than recommended and u can save some fuel.. id say go for the getz if u can afford it. if u're a student who needs to jimat every cent u earned, get the saga instead. nice car if u can live with the engine noise..

hmm, maybe getz high fc is because it's fun to drive to it hard, that's why fc higher. when i drive the saga, pickup is damn slow and engine rev damn hard while making noises without any significant pickup. it's like the pedal's function is only to increase engine noise and rpm. but getz pickup is way way better, so it's fun to throttle it around the city, maybe that's why fc higher...
