I was out looking for a car for my daughter but didnt find one , but one like this caught my eye for myself ;D ::)
CDX (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2004-HYUNDAI-TERRACAN-CDX-CRTD-AUTO-SILVER-73K-WARRANTED-MILES-SUPERB-/331478900428?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item4d2dae9ecc)
Anyone have any info on how reliable they are ect :-\ Quite like it .

It's certainly a real looker.... :D :D

I have a 2005 Terracan bought it in 2012 , 1 previous owner & had only covered 25,000 miles now on 42,000 & hasn't missed a beat apart from service items I have had no problems.30 mpg average 27 when towing a twin axle caravan ,solo on a long run 38mpg. Very big following in Australia worth having a look at their forum. Seen several around since buying mine & have spoken with several of the owners all reckon they are very underrated vehicles and really good value.

Nice to know ;) The one at the garage near me was an 06 plate i think and had 140,000 miles full service history . They wanted £3500 .

You're so fickle EMD! ::) Falling out of love with the Frontera already? ;D
Or have you won the lottery?! :D

This looks very good for the price, I assume Mercedes engine and gearbox, just like the Jeep.............. :y :y
Guys, we all know that the best 4X4 is a 'Series' Land Rover, not the modern stuff, it has too much to break down, especially the electrics........ :y :y
-
Should have said mine is a manual, the autos apparently return only 19-25 mpg that is the biggest complaint on the forum.Yes it is a Merc derived engine & gearbox using a Shogun chassis it is a very capable beast off road plenty of proof on u tube.

Dream on, there is nothing less reliable than a Land Rover! ;D ;D ;D ;D :y

I have had several 4x4s over the last 25 years Toyota Nissan Subaru & now Hyundai, I am the first to admit that Land Rover make some good looking vehicles but that is as far as it goes, if you want reliability such as I do buy foreign !! I paid £5450 for mine in 2012 from the bay, came with full history original bill of sale £17,300 & only 25,000 miles a real bargain.

Is that for the diesel ??? I get that from the 3.2 4x4 petrol .

Not mechanically. OK, older ones rust a bit, but then the Frontera was designed and built in Vauxhall's Rustbucket years.

The earlier ones were crusty indeed , later ones are fine . No rust on mine other than a few stone chips but they have been sorted.. it depends how its looked after and what sort of life its had . Same as any car , if it gets a home by the sea then one car will rot .. another will be fine if its washed regular and wax oil treated .

I've yet to be in one that was any better than horrible. I really am trying to think of something nice to say, but I'm failing.
They are that shite, I'd rather have my Zafira... ...and that's a PoS

Its never going to compete with an omega , handling or anything else :D Not got it for that ;)

Credit where it's due... the Zafira is at least useful ::)

Shoguns have a bloody good try! At least a Land Rover is easy and cheap to fix; I'm convinced that Mitsubishi is Japanese for HOW oppsing much????

Oh it's probably worth a fiver, which would leave enough cash to buy a nice big paper bag to wear whilst driving the thing.

Wrong colour, wrong shape, wrong engine and wrong gearbox... What could possibly go, er..., wrong ::)
-
I could be wrong but the 2.9 is Hyundai's own engine and nothing to do with Mercedes

2.9 litre inline-four Hyundai J engine :-\

Nearly every one I looked at was advertised as "with merc engine" so I stand corrected, having said that I have no complaints at all with the vehicle at all ,as it only covers around 5,000 miles a year it should last me for years .I have had the MOT done every year at my local Hyundai dealership & it had sailed through every time, one of the salesman there remembers when they were launched & went on a off road day with them reckons they were very good indeed.
